Poker legend Phil Hellmuth is heading to Lilac Club Casino in Rochester for an exclusive high-stakes weekend. On Saturday, Aug. 16, the 17-time World Series of Poker bracelet winner will take an afternoon seat at the Lilac Club’s “Beat the Champ” poker tournament, and the challenge is simple: win the tournament, claim your share of the $100,000 cash prize pool, and beat the champ along the way.

A $500 cash bonus is awarded to the player who can bust Phil Hellmuth out of the tournament.

A total of 108 seats plus alternates are available in this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to outplay one of poker’s biggest names. Players can qualify for the tournament in several ways:

• Player of the Week Promotion (June 29–Aug. 9): Each week, the top five players who log the most rated hours in the Poker Room will earn seats in the “Beat the Champ” tournament.

• Satellite Tournaments (Aug. 2 and Aug. 9): Held at Lilac Club Casino, each $250 buy-in tournament will award one seat for every six players

• Direct Buy-In: Players may buy-in for $1200 during early registration on Friday, Aug. 15 from 9 a.m. to 1 a.m. at the Poker Room cage. Registration continues Saturday, Aug 16 at 9 a.m., with late registration open from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.

“This isn’t just another tournament, it’s a shot at poker history. Phil Hellmuth isn’t just a champion, he’s a legend, and top tournament players will walk away with a share of $100,000 cash,” said Eric Barbaro, chief operating officer of Granite State Gaming & Hospitality.
