ACR Poker's biggest weekly tournament

(PRESS RELEASE) -- ACR Poker is raising the stakes with Phil's Thrill, its biggest-ever weekly high-stakes tournament, which has already begun to gain momentum. Launched earlier this month, the $10,300 buy-in tournament runs every Sunday at 2:30pm ET, drawing high rollers and seasoned pros seeking regular Big Poker action.

Designed to bring the excitement and intensity of high-stakes poker, Phil's Thrill unites poker's elite and fearless competitors eager to battle for massive prize pools every week. From its inaugural event on July 6th, which drew 46 players and a $460,000 prize pool, to its second edition on July 13th with 47 entries and $470,000 in prizes awarded, Phil's Thrill is steadily becoming a popular fixture on ACR Poker's weekly schedule.

"I love this game so much, and this tournament is all about bringing together the best players and sharpest minds to elevate the game. It's all about growth, competition, and building connections with those who share my passion," said ACR Poker CEO Phil Nagy.

Each week will see big surprises and big names like high stakes regular Phil Nagy, $12.5 Million Venom winner Dominik Nitsche, and poker legend Chris Moneymaker. Other poker heroes will also drop by to get in on the action, keeping each weekly tourney fresh and unpredictable.

"There aren't many weekly online events out there that bring together this level of talent and intensity," said ACR Pro Chris Moneymaker. "Phil's Thrill gives you the chance to battle some of the toughest players out there, and with satellites and Step Tourneys running every week, anyone can find their way into the action."

"Honestly, this feels like the right thing to do at this time. Poker has been getting bigger and bigger at higher stakes, and there's clearly a market for tournaments at this price point," said Dominik Nitsche. "I'm confident it will be more than just regs playing an SNG, with elite players ready to play and grow this event into something really exciting."

Aspiring high stakes players can win their seat into the Main Event via the $1,050 Phil's Thrill Satellites every Sunday at 11:30am ET and 2:15pm ET, guaranteeing at least one $10,300 entry each. Plus, Survivor Flips Step Tournaments offer ambitious players of all bankrolls a chance to qualify from as little as $3.15.
