Party Poker has announced the third edition of its popular high stakes super series beginning on Tuesday September 30th. Last year’s PartyPoker.com Poker Den caught the attention of many professional players, including Phil Hellmuth, Todd Brunson, Tony G, Chris Ferguson, Kamie Gold, Dave “Devilfish” Ulliot, Roland de Wolfe, Hoyt Corkins and Mike “The Mouth” Matusow.

Several pros have already confirmed their presence at the Big Game III, includingTony G, Devilfish, Jamie Gold, Robert Williamson III, Roland de Wolfe, Neil Channing, Andrew Feldman, Brian Townsend and Kirk Morrison are already confirmed to appear while others expected to appear include Phil Laak, Antonio Esfandiari, Jon Kalmar, Sammy “Any Two” George, Roberto Romanello, John Tabatabai, Mike “The Mouth” Matusow, Jennifer Tilly, Anthony Hardy and Phil Hellmuth.

Among the changes planned for this year, maybe the most important is the additional 12 hours added to the former 24-hour event. PartyPoker will also run a promotion at the same time as the Big Game III in where all players playing in real money games on PartyPoker.com will have the chance to win an hourly $1,000 bonus just for playing at the online poker site.

"There is a little doubt that the Poker Den has a cult following. Clips from the first two games are all over the internet. Viewers love the fine line between poker genius and complete madness it seems to bring out in the world's top pros! The Den is a small intimate venue so we just hope it is big enough to accommodate their egos!" a PartyPoker.com spokesman said
 
The event will begin as a $10,000 minimum buy-in, $25/$50 NL Hold’em game, but with so many high pros set to play, the blinds will probably jump in the first few hours. The game will first be broadcast on Channel 5 in the UK then be distributed worldwide. For more information, please visit PartyPoker.com.
