Benyamine, Negreanu and Vanessa Rousso join PartyPoker.com Premier League IV player line up
- 1-26-2010
PartyPoker.com has announced that WSOP bracelet winner Daniel Negreanu, professional poker player Vanessa Rousso and French high stakes cash legend David Benyamine have joined the line-up for PartyPoker.com Premier League IV in Las Vegas from the February 12th – 18th, 2010.
Both Negreanu and Benyamine are among the most popular poker pros on the circuit, with over $12 million in combined career earnings. Rounding up the players lineup is French-American poker talent and Team PokerStars member, Vanessa Rousso, who will add a little glamour as the only female player invited to play this year's event.
“There was only one target when selecting a female player for the league. Vanessa has become a huge force in poker and her win at the EPT High Rollers event coupled with her runners-up finish at the NBC Heads-Up Championship as well as a string of WSOP cashes has made her, in my opinion, the world’s number one female player right now.†commented Eddie Hearn from Matchroom Poker.
This year's line up will also feature 2009 Poker Hall of Fame inductee Mike Sexton, J.C. Tran, Yevgeniy Timoshenko, Roland de Wolfe, Luke Schwartz, multiple WSOP bracelet winner Phil Hellmuth and the newest member of Team Party Poker, Tony G. With ten players for the $100,000 buy-in Main Event already confirmed, there are now only two seats left for the Premier League IV. One seat will come from a Team Party play-off, while the final seat will go to an online poker qualifier. A total of 16 players who all fly out to Las Vegas to play in a Premier League Poker play-off to see which one of the 16 will join 11 professional players in Premier League Poker IV. The online qualifiers will play a short series of play-off sit & go's in Las Vegas and the eventual winner will win a $100,000 buy-in to take part in the main Premier League event.
