Starting this weekend, ACR Poker players can qualify for a chance to win a heads-up battle with poker legend Chris Moneymaker. After battling each other through various qualifying rounds, two players will each compete against Moneymaker for the opportunity to win a 14-night luxury stay in Las Vegas, $10K buy-in to a Main Event, and an exclusive itinerary of activities around Las Vegas, immersing them in a unique VIP atmosphere.
ACR Poker players can join one of four $8.60 buy-in multi-table tournaments (MTTs) on June 8th, 9th, 15th and 16th (all at 3pm ET) for a chance to win. The top two winners from each MTT will advance to a final 8-handed Sit & Go on Monday, June 17th at 3pm ET. The top two finishers in the Sit & Go final will then face ACR Pro Chris Moneymaker in online heads-up battles on Tuesday, June 18th, playing a best of three.
For poker players looking to witness the action, the epic heads-up matches will be live-streamed on ACR’s Twitch channel. Whoever beats Moneymaker will win an incredible prize package, which includes a round-trip flight, luxury accommodation from July 1st-14th, $10,000 entry to the prestigious Vegas Main Event, entry to an exclusive ACR Pros Meet-up event, plus a unique opportunity to spend time with Moneymaker in Las Vegas.
“This is a great opportunity for poker players to step up their game and experience the thrill of playing in Las Vegas,” said Moneymaker. “I’m looking forward to welcoming the winners to Sin City and giving them a glimpse into life as an ACR Pro. I’m also excited to see who has what it takes to beat me in a heads-up battle!”
The Moneymaker Vegas Experience promotion gives poker players the chance to learn from one of the best in the game. Moneymaker has been on a recent hot streak, finishing in 6th place in ACR Poker’s $12.5 Million GTD Venom tourney, bagging $382,007. He followed that up with a magical win at Event #1 (GG Million$ Live) at the Triton Super High Roller Series in Montenegro, earning $903,000.

PrizePicks, the largest daily fantasy sports operator in North America, has announced that it has partnered with the San Diego Padres as the team’s Official Daily Fantasy Sports Partner. The deal marks PrizePicks’ first team partnership in the state of California, uniting two organizations committed to delivering innovative gameday experiences for baseball fans nationwide.
“The Padres are one of the most dynamic franchises in Major League Baseball, and we’re proud to be part of their journey.

As part of the agreement, PrizePicks will receive prominent in-venue branding at Petco Park, including LED signage in the outfield and banner displays throughout the ballpark’s concourses. The partnership also extends to the Padres’ digital platforms, with PrizePicks featured through banner advertising on Padres.com and pregame commercial reads on Padres.TV during the regular season.
“We are excited to partner with PrizePicks to bring Padres fans even closer to the game of baseball. Together, we are creating unique opportunities for fans to follow and connect with the team and are giving them even more reason to celebrate when the Padres score,” said Sergio del Prado, Padres Executive Vice President of Business Affairs.
To further engage fans, PrizePicks will launch a unique in-game promotion throughout the 2025 season.
