The online poker landscape is currently being defined by one standout tournament series: ACR Poker’s “Highest Five.” Featuring some of the largest buy-ins, toughest competition, and biggest prize pools available online, the series continues to attract elite players from around the world—and deliver headline-making results.
This week, the spotlight fell on Chris Moneymaker, who secured a major victory in the BIG Fatty 6-Max event, earning $170,850. Competing against a field packed with high-level talent, Moneymaker navigated one of the most competitive tournaments of the series to add another title to his already storied career.
Moneymaker, best known for winning the 2003 WSOP Main Event and helping ignite the global poker boom, has continued to prove his relevance in today’s high-stakes environment. His latest online triumph follows a recent $903,000 win on the Triton Poker circuit, reinforcing his reputation as a consistent performer across both live and online formats.
The “Highest Five” series has distinguished itself with a schedule packed full of premium events. Buy-ins range from $10,300 high rollers to $15,400 marquee tournaments, with prize pools regularly reaching between $400,000 and $500,000 or more. Recent highlights include a $510,000 prize pool in the BIG Fatty 6-Max, a $1.325 million prize pool in Phil’s $25K Puff & Bluff, and multiple other events surpassing the half-million mark.
Beyond the headline series, ACR Poker is simultaneously hosting its Dual Venoms Mystery Bounty events. These include an $8 million guaranteed No-Limit Hold’em tournament and a $2 million guaranteed Pot-Limit Omaha event, both offering multiple entry flights and substantial payouts. Several Day 1 flights remain available, giving players continued opportunities to qualify.
The schedule still features key upcoming events, including the Full Baked PLO 6-Max ($10,300) and the Last Dab ($15,400), ensuring that the series’ biggest moments may still lie ahead.
With record-setting prize pools, elite competition, and high-profile winners already emerging, ACR Poker’s “Highest Five” has firmly established itself as the premier destination for online high-stakes tournament action this week.
