ACR Poker, the popular online poker site, has launched a new weekly tournament in honour of former world poker champ and ACR Pro Chris Moneymaker.

Known for his historic 2003 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event win, Chris Moneymaker continues to inspire poker players worldwide. His victory, famously known as the “Moneymaker Effect,” showed that anyone could become a poker champion by starting online. The Sunday Moneymaker tournament is a tribute to his legacy and offers players the chance to turn ordinary experiences into something extraordinary.

The Sunday Moneymaker tourney ($109 buy-in) is a rebrand of ACR Poker’s staple Sunday Warmup, with even more money on the line. There’s a $300,000 guarantee every Sunday at 1:05 pm ET, except the last Sunday of the month where it’s bumped up to $500,000. Players can compete for life-changing prizes every week, with approximately $45,000 for first place in the $300,000 GTD tourney and $75,000 in the $500,000 GTD event.

“I’m thrilled to have an ACR Poker tournament named after me and be part of this budget-friendly, big weekly event. Just like the recent Moneymaker Experience, where players won a VIP trip to join me in Vegas, this tourney is designed to give poker players the opportunity to experience their own ordinary-to-extraordinary moments,” ACR Pro Chris Moneymaker said.

Moneymaker added that there is a Mega Satellite in the hours before every Sunday Moneymaker tourney. And there is a path to qualify for each that starts with a freeroll ($0) and goes to Micro Hyper Sats ($1.05, $2.10).
