Every Tuesday in May, UltimateBet's Beat the Brat online promotion is celebrating Phil Hellmuth's 20th Anniversary since becoming the youngest person to win the WSOP Main Event in 1989.

The leading online poker site is giving Texas Hold ‘em fans the chance to pit their skills against the biggest name in the game for a share of the Beat the Brat prizemoney, and with a Bounty on Hellmuth's head, the action promises to be a fierce fight for the ultimate bragging rights of bagging Phil's scalp on the night.

But be forewarned, Hellmuth will be armed and ready to pull out the big guns. Whatever it takes to dodge bullets at the table, the 11-time bracelet winner will call on his arsenal of poker's finest strategies and bluffs to ward off the inevitable assault on his head.

"I'm excited to headline Tuesday night's at UltimateBet and I look forward to the challenge of the "Beat the Brat" Bounty on myself. I always have fun competing and make no mistake, I always bring my best game with me. I'll be playing to win!" says Phil Hellmuth.

It all kicks off on Tuesday, May 5th at 21:30 ET, as the UltimateBet Poker Pro takes to the tables and the Beat the Brat Tournament begins. For a $30+3 buy-in, players compete in this fast action freezout tournament featuring Phil Hellmuth, and the player who knocks the ‘Poker Brat' from the felt will receive an automatic $530 entry into UltimateBet's 50-seat WSOP* Guaranteed tourney slated for June 21st, where at least 50 players will walk away with a $12,000 Vegas prize package that includes a seat in the Main Event.

The UltimateBet Poker Pro is known just as much for his wild antics at the poker table and bad beat outbursts as he is for his extraordinary record as a seasoned tournament player. In the Beat the Brat tournament, online poker players can expect some fireworks at the table from Hellmuth.  Don't be intimidated. There's nothing to lose and everything to gain when you enter the arena to play in the company of Hellmuth, because win or lose, you're sure to learn a thing or two about improving your own game from the poker champion.

The 2009 WSOP* is hotly anticipated to deliver a history-defining moment for Phil Hellmuth, when he goes all-in for his 12th, record breaking WSOP* bracelet. It's shaping up to be a milestone summer of poker for the 44 year-old if he can seal the deal and notch up his next bracelet win, exactly 20 years after winning his very first WSOP* title. In UltimateBet's 10th birthday year, it will be twice as sweet to see the Poker Brat emerge triumphant with a new piece of jewelry on his wrist.

Love him or hate him, there's no denying Hellmuth's a legend of the game and it's every poker player's dream to beat the Poker Brat at his own game.  Mark May 5th, 12th, 19th and 26th in your calendar for your chance to live the ultimate poker dream. Register for Tuesday's tournament now or win your spot from as little as $2 or 550 UltimatePoints through a daily qualifier.
