Some of the biggest names in poker will be attending Party Poker Premier League Season 3 and Phil Hellmuth, Tom 'Durrr' Dwan, and current WSOP champion Peter Eastgate were just added to the list of players.

Everyone expects some interesting gaming, especially from Hellmuth and Eastgate as Eastgate just broke Hellmuth's record of youngest WSOP champion. “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. I’m looking forward to watching the way this young gun plays his hands in the Premier League.” said Hellmuth to Poker News Daily.

“This is my first event since the WSOP Main Event final table, so I am delighted to be part of a world-class lineup,”  “I am the man in form and I want to show people why I am the World Champion.” said Eastgate to Poker News Daily.

As you can see this will be one battle of titans. Tom 'Durrrr' Dwan will also be playing, he is a well-respected online high stakes player and now he is coming out to his first Premier League. The other players will be Dave “Devilfish” Ulliott, C Tran, Nenad Medic, Tony G, Juha Helppi, Annette Obrestad, Roland De Wolfe, Victoria Coren, and defending champion Andy Black.
