Flashback: Muaaz Gani Wins 2024 THMC Cape Town Million
Level 25
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
The 2024 The Hendon Mob Championship Cape Town Million doubled the initial guarantee and generated a ZAR 2,009,280 ($111,193) prize pool, thanks to an overall field of 299 entries. The trophy remained on home soil as Muaaz Gani and Sugen Singh agreed to a heads-up deal with the former claiming the bragging rights as narrow chip leader at the time.
Gani would have normally not agreed to a deal but a closer look at the trophy on the final table changed his mind. "Today was actually a day where I really wanted to have that trophy". Runner-up Singh had also cut a deal when he took down the SunBet Poker Tour Time Square Main Event earlier this year and now conceded the same honour for a bigger piece of the pie.
