PartyPoker.com Premier League III Airs in UK Tonight

The much anticipated PartyPoker.com Premier League III starts tonight/tomorrow morning on Channel 4 in the UK at 01:35 a.m. (Monday Jan. 5/Tuesday Jan. 6).

The first match features Peter Eastgate,  Dave ‘Devilfish’ Ulliott,  Annette Obrestad, Roland de Wolfe, Andy Black, and  JC Tran.

Victoria Coren commentates with Jesse May.

With the increased buy-in —  $75,000 — and the added money raised to $350,000 also, there is a total prize pool of $1.25 million. The event took place in London from Nov. 24 to 30.

Matchroom Sport devised the unique format, which sees the 12 players play six times in the league before the top four progress to the final table, and the four runners-up play heads up for the remaining two places.

Last year the final leader board looked like this:

1. Andy Black (Ireland) — $316,000
2. Roland De Wolfe (England) — $160,000
3. Tony G (Lithuania) — $136,000
4. Alexander Kravchenko (Russia) — $92,000
5. Marcel Luske (Holland) — $72,000
6. Annie Duke (America) — $58,000
7. Eddy Scharf (Germany) — $38,000
8. Dave “The Devilfish” Ulliott (England) — $38,000
9. Vicky Coren (England) — $34,000
10. Juha Helppi (Finland) — $22,000
11. Ian Frazer (England) — $18,000
12. Phil Hellmuth (America) — $16,000
