ACR POKER CONCLUDES MONSTER VENOM TOURNAMENTS, DELIVERING OVER $10 MILLION IN PRIZE POOLS AND EPIC FINAL TABLE BATTLES
ACR Poker wrapped up its flagship Dual Venom tournaments, delivering over two weeks of big poker action and awarding more than $10 million in prize pools as players worldwide battled for massive payouts and coveted bounties.
The $8 Million NLH Venom drew 3,392 entrants across six Day 1 flights, pushing the prize pool to $8,480,000. The tournament concluded with Southern California resident David ‘IamYorFather’ Gonzalez, 54, claiming the NLH Venom crown after a fierce final table battle against elite opponents. The champion eliminated runner-up ‘ArkaduktusFrRM’, earning $665,163 and $45,000 in bounties.
“I’m still trying to process what just happened. Even days later it all seems so surreal. I was especially thrilled to be able to overcome being the short stack at the final table,” Gonzalez shared. “The money was a blessing because I have quite a few family members in need and this allows me to support them fully.”
Adding to the excitement, ‘sorka1975’ claimed the $500,000 top bounty, with ‘ArkaduktusFrRM’ ($210,000) and ‘AndreWard’ ($205,000) rounding out the top three mystery bounty winners.
ACR Pros kept the action buzzing throughout, with Chris Moneymaker firing up multiple bullets in the opening Day 1s, and Michael Loncar, Rob Kuhn, and Katie Lindsay earning their spots in Day 2. Fans can rewatch the final table action on ACR Poker’s Twitch channel, featuring Rob Kuhn and Drew Gonzalez.
Meanwhile, the $2 Million PLO Venom, tying ACR Poker’s biggest Omaha tourney ever, attracted 830 entrants and a $2,075,000 total prize pool. ‘FutureTrunks’ ultimately secured the first-place prize of $208,217, plus $146,250 in bounties.
“It was awesome to see such a solid turnout and fun atmosphere in both Venom tourneys,” said Moneymaker. “Huge congrats to the winners and everyone who hit those incredible bounties.”
From Venom Fever to the Venom Vault, ACR Poker offered players hundreds of low-cost opportunities to win $2,650 Venom seats. One standout success came from ‘xGetxRektx’, who turned an $0.80 Venom Vault Key into an incredible $15,000 bounty and $6,500 cash prize.
While the Venom tourneys have concluded, ACR Poker is ensuring the action continues with more exciting tournaments approaching, including September’s Online Super Series XL, boasting a $50 million guarantee.
