Premier League III Saves Best for Last

PartyPoker has been announcing names to their Premier League III roster left and right. Every week new names have been added to the list, beefing it up to be a very exciting challenge. The last name has now been announced by PartyPoker and some might say they saved the best for last.

Phil Hellmuth will be returning to compete in the Premier Poker League this season for the third time in a row. The closest Hellmuth has came to winning was in his first appearance when he placed third. Hellmuth commented on playing in the Premier League against newly crowned WSOP Main Event champion Peter Eastgate. "Only a few weeks back, Peter Eastgate broke my record as 'youngest world champion of poker in history' at the tender age of 22-years-old," said Hellmuth. Talk about being on form, this kid won over $9 million at the WSOP Main Event! I'm looking forward to watching the way this young gun plays his hands in the Premier League."

On Friday the draw for heats will take place and the event will begin on November 24th and continue through the 30th in London, England. The rest of the lineup includes: Tom “durrrr” Dwan, J.C. Tran, Nenad Medic, Tony G, Vicky Coren, David “Devilfish” Ulliott, Annette Obrestad, Roland De Wolfe, Andy Black, Juha Helppi and Peter Eastgate.
