As the Sunday Moneymaker tourney approaches its one-year anniversary this summer, ACR Poker is launching a month-long pre-celebration this May with the Moneymaker May-Hem. This promo gives players a chance to join the 2003 WSOP Main Event Champion and poker legend Chris Moneymaker for a once-in-a-lifetime VIP experience during the Main Event of Vegas’ hottest summer series.

Throughout the month of May, every player who plays a $109 buy-in Sunday Moneymaker on ACR Poker and reaches a final table in any of the weekly events will earn a spot in a Final Sit & Go Showdown on Sunday, June 1st at 4pm ET.

The Final Sit & Go winner will receive a VIP package complete with a $10,000 buy-in to the Vegas Main Event, $5,000 cash for travel and other expenses, and the chance to meet Chris Moneymaker in Las Vegas. Second and third place finishers will receive $109 Sunday Moneymaker Tickets.

“The Sunday Moneymaker has become something really special, and it’s been incredible to watch it grow since we launched it last year,” said Moneymaker. “This May promo is a huge thank you to our community and every player who’s been part of this ride. I’m looking forward to welcoming the winner in Vegas, talking strategy, and hopefully celebrating a deep run in the Main Event together.” 

The Sunday Moneymaker,  which launched in July 2024 to honor ACR Pro and poker icon Chris Moneymaker, has quickly grown into one of ACR Poker’s weekly signature events. Since its debut, the Sunday Moneymaker has already attracted over 78,000 entrants and awarded more than $13 million in total prize money. The tournament features a $300,000 guarantee every Sunday, with a $400,000 prize pool on the final Sunday of each month.

Moneymaker noted that players can also qualify for each Sunday Moneymaker through ACR Poker’s satellites in the hours before every tournament, with paths starting at freerolls ($0), Micro Hyper Sats ($1.05, $2.10), and Mega Satellites ($11, $22) offering guaranteed $109 seats.

For poker players looking to follow the action, the Final Sit & Go Showdown will be live-streamed on ACR’s Twitch channel on Sunday, June 1st.

Poker players looking for lightning-fast tournament poker action are heading to ACR Poker. The popular global poker site is bringing the heat with Lightning PKOs—a rapid progressive knockout tournament format that delivers high-speed play and big knockout prizes in tournaments that last just 45 minutes.

“If you’re a family man like me, finding time to play tournaments can be a challenge,” said ACR Pro and poker legend Chris Moneymaker. “ACR Poker’s Lightning PKOs are perfect for time-starved players who love fast-paced poker action and big knockout rewards without the long grind. Whether you’re playing on mobile or desktop, there’s 45-minute tournaments running around the clock, making it easy to find a game and join the excitement anytime.”

Running 24/7, Lightning PKOs give players the flexibility to jump into the action at any time. With buy-ins ranging from $0.11 up to $31.50, these tournaments cater to every bankroll while providing the chance to play for instant knockout bounties. With 20 minutes of late registration, players can join on the fly without missing out.

Unlike traditional poker tournaments that can last for hours, Lightning PKOs keep the action moving, with every tournament wrapping up in just 45 minutes. Players start with 10 big blinds and every knockout results in an instant cash prize. With more players joining daily, the prize pools continue to grow, offering even greater rewards in every tournament.

Lightning PKOs are now available as part of ACR Poker’s recently revamped tournament schedule, giving players the chance to jump in and play anytime, anywhere.

In addition to the high-energy Lightning PKOs, players can experience even more action at ACR Poker throughout March and April. The Online Super Series runs until Monday, March 31st, featuring $25 million in guarantees and a $35,000 Leaderboard Contest. Players can also jump into the $12 million guaranteed Dual Venom tournaments starting Sunday, April 13th and secure their $2,650 seat for as little as $0 through the Venom Vault and Venom Fever Satellites.

ACR Poker is kicking off the new year with two massive Mystery Bounty Venom events, boasting $10 million in total guarantees. And now the popular worldwide poker site’s Venom Fever promotion is giving players an easier, more affordable way to lock in their $2,650 seats to these major tournaments.

The Venom Fever satellites, available until Sunday, February 2nd, are awarding over 800 seats, each worth $2,650, for the $8 million NLH and $2 million PLO Venom events that both begin with Day1A on Sunday, January 19th. Included are the Beast, Venom Madness, Mega Satellites, and Direct Satellites.

“Our Venom Fever satellites are the perfect way to secure your $2,650 Venom seat for much less or even free,” said ACR Pro Chris Moneymaker. “Packed with substantial prize money, exciting bounties, and tons of chances to qualify, January’s Mystery Bounty Venom events are going to be huge—don’t miss your chance to be part of the action.” 

For the $8 million NLH Venom event, players can join ACR Poker’s weekly Beast tournament taking place on Sunday, January 12th, 19th and 26th at 5:05pm ET—with 95 total seats up for grabs. The next tourney guarantees 25 seats, and players can buy-in for $95 or qualify for free by climbing the weekly Beast leaderboard.

In addition, Mega Satellites will guarantee a whopping 262 seats from Saturday, January 18th to Sunday, February 2nd, with pathways starting as low as $0. The Venom Madness satellite offers a chance to enter for $16.50 from Sunday, January 12th to Saturday, February 1st, with 10 total seats guaranteed. Players can also take part in daily Direct Satellites that guarantee 369 total seats, with buy-ins from $33.

For those looking to join the $2 million PLO Venom, players can participate in daily Direct Satellites, guaranteeing 42 seats with buy-ins starting at $207.50. To top it off, $290 buy-in Mega Satellites will guarantee 30 total seats, with opportunities to qualify for free.

Although the Dual Mystery Bounty Venoms take center stage, there’s still plenty of action this January with ACR Poker’s $500,000 guaranteed Venom Warmup. It has flights running Sunday, January 12th through Sunday, February 2nd, with a buy-in of just $55. Players can also take advantage of the Venom Vault promotion for a chance to win a free $2,650 seat to the Mystery Bounty Venom tourneys.
