This past Sunday marked one of the most action-packed days in the history of ACR Poker, as the platform combined the debut of its new Highest Five nosebleed schedule with the ongoing Dual Mystery Bounty Venom series.
The headline event of the day was Phil’s $25K Puff & Bluff, the largest buy-in tournament ever hosted on ACR Poker. Featuring a $25,000 + $500 entry fee, the tournament attracted 53 entries and generated a prize pool of $1.325 million. The event was ultimately won by “AlwaysWithNuts,” who secured the top prize of $371,000. “OutFoxenYou” finished second for $265,000, while “Iauspicious” claimed third place and $212,000. The strong turnout signaled immediate interest in the newly introduced Highest Five series among high-stakes players.
Other events across the schedule also delivered significant prize pools and competitive fields. The $5K Blunt Special drew 113 entries, building a $565,000 prize pool, with “ImWinninAnyway” taking first place and $127,125 in winnings. Meanwhile, established Sunday tournaments continued to perform strongly. The $600K Guaranteed Sunday Blunt Roller was won by “kadambah,” who earned $143,896, and the $100K Guaranteed Sunday Smash Stash attracted nearly 4,000 entries, with “123galobetei” emerging victorious.
In parallel, the $8 million guaranteed Venom Mystery Bounty tournament continued to gain momentum. Day 1C alone brought in 779 entries, adding more than $2 million to the overall prize pool. A total of 94 players advanced to Day 2, all securing a minimum payout and remaining in contention for the tournament’s top mystery bounty prize of $500,000.
The scale and diversity of Sunday’s schedule highlighted the depth of ACR Poker’s current offerings. From high-stakes tournaments with five-figure buy-ins to lower-stakes events targeting value-focused players, the platform’s lineup caters to a wide range of participants. The High Five series alone features 10 tournaments per day, backed by $4 million in guarantees and more than $25,000 in leaderboard prizes.
With multiple Venom flights still ahead, several days remaining in the High Five series, and a $200,000 guaranteed Main Event approaching, ACR Poker is currently in the midst of one of its most significant weeks to date. For players looking to get involved, opportunities remain across a variety of buy-in levels, with satellites providing access to higher-tier events.
As momentum continues to build, the platform shows no signs of slowing down, positioning this stretch as a defining period for online tournament poker.
