Phil Hellmuth joins the PartyPoker Premier League
Hellmuth is back!

The lineup for the PartyPoker Premier League is now complete as Phil Hellmuth returns

The line-up for PartyPoker.com Premier League III is complete! The final spot could only really go to one person and that is 11 time WSOP bracelet winner and living legend Phil Hellmuth! The ‘Poker Brat’ joins Tom ‘Durrrr’ Dwan, JC Tran, Nenad Medic, Devilfish, Tony G, Vicky Coren, Annette Obrestad, Roland de Wolfe, Andy Black, Juha Helppi and the man who recently broke Hellmuth’s record as the youngest WSOP Main Event winner, Peter Eastgate.

The draw for the heats takes place at 10am GMT tomorrow, Thursday 20th November, at the studios that are hosting the event. The draw will be blogged live at www.matchroompoker.com and the event runs from the 24th – 30th November in London.

Eddie Hearn, Director of Online Gaming at Matchroom Sport said: “"The whole reason Matchroom Sport became involved with poker is because we love the game. We wanted to deliver a dream dozen for the fans and this is without doubt the most exciting line up in poker history. The Premier League is an arena where greatness is on display and genius happens - twelve of the games' biggest ever talents will face off for over a million dollars in what will be the greatest poker spectacle of all time."

PartyPoker.com Premier League III sees the buy-in elevated to ,000 and the added money raised to 0,000, making a total prize pool of .25 million. The next event wasn’t due to take place until 2009 but the demands of international broadcasters for coverage of the event has brought it forward! The series features 12 of the world’s best players playing in a unique league format. All 12 players will play six times in the preliminary stages. The leading four players will then progress to the final table with the next four battling it out in heads-up matches for the final two seats.
