ACR Poker tournament series and promotions

Overview

ACR Poker has conducted several high-stakes tournament series. In late September, the platform hosted the $12 million guaranteed NLH Mystery Bounty Venom event, won by Stefan ‘Deltoid88’ Rados, alongside the OSS XL series which featured prize pools exceeding $4.8 million across multiple Main Events.

In October, the platform expanded its offerings with $6.5 million in guaranteed Dual Venom Progressive Knockout (PKO) events, split between No-Limit Hold’em and Pot-Limit Omaha. These events are accompanied by professional player broadcasts on the Kick channel. Furthermore, a new USA Weekly Leaderboard was scheduled to launch on October 12, offering US-registered players a chance to win tournament tickets through weekday participation.

As of mid-October, the $6.5 million Dual Venom PKO series was entering its final stages. The schedule included a $5 million guaranteed No-Limit Hold’em (NLH) Venom PKO and a $1.5 million guaranteed Pot-Limit Omaha (PLO) Venom PKO.

By late October, the Dual Venom PKO tournaments concluded, with both the NLH and PLO events surpassing their combined $6.5 million guarantees to reach total prize pools of $6,862,500. In the NLH event, PushLightYear from Andorra took first place, earning $536,577. In the PLO event, tigerseyes from Mexico secured first place with $239,819. Additionally, Pepareg1 from Ukraine earned a combined $446,144 from third place in the NLH event and second place in the PLO event.
