Table Of Contents

The Hendon Mob Championship (THMC) is set to launch its 2025 poker season with the return to Grand Casino Liechtenstein for the second Annual THM Winter Championship. Running from February 5-9, this festival hosts five trophy events, an estimated CHF150,000 in prize pools (approx. $164,645), and the first chance of the year to win a THMC Cape Town Million package.

With the hosts nestled by the Alps, the THM Winter Championship offers players the chance to mix their love of winter sports with their passion for the game. With the backdrop of Liechtenstein’s snow-covered peaks, players can hit the slopes by day and the felt by night. Satellites, cash games, and the headlining Main Event provide plenty of action to warm up even the coldest winter days.

Schweiger Shows His Swagger with Heads-Up Comeback

Hermann SchweigerHermann Schweiger of Germany took the title at the 2024 THMWC Main Event after overcoming a 4:1 chip deficit in his heads-up battle against Nicola Diaco.

Diaco had led the field as chip leader from Day 1a and almost took a wire-to-wire victory, having laid waste to most of the final table, but ultimately came up just short.

Schweiger outlasted the 506 runner field and, for his victory, took home the sum of 30,900 CHF, the Cape Town package, along with the trophy and belt.
