Win a $10,000 Main Event Seat + $5,000 in Travel Expenses
ACR Pro and former Main Event world champ, Chris Moneymaker is picking a sidekick. And it could be you!
All May long, ACR Poker is serving up your shot at poker immortality. One player. One wild ride to Vegas for the world’s most famous poker series. A $10,000 seat at the Main Event—plus $5,000 for travel, hotel rooms, and maybe a celebratory steak or two.
This isn’t your average promo. It’s a fast track to Sin City with a legendary wingman.
How to Qualify
- Play the $109 buy-in Sunday Moneymaker tourney during any Sunday in May.
- Make the Final Table any week and advance to the next level.
- You’ll then compete in The Final Sit & Go Showdown on Sunday, June 1st at 4pm ET. Winner takes all (well, almost all).
Loot to be won
1st Place: $10,000 Main Event Seat + $5,000 in Cash
(aka: the golden ticket and travel expenses)
2nd Place: 15 x $109 Sunday Moneymaker Tickets
(pretty serious consolation prize)
3rd Place: 5 x $109 Sunday Moneymaker Tickets
(not too shabby either)
Best Part of All - Hang Out With Chris Moneymaker
The winner won’t be flying solo – you’ll also meet ACR Pro Chris Moneymaker himself in the PokerOrg Lounge at the Horseshoe hotel in Vegas. Perfect time for strategy talk, photo ops, and insights from the former Main Event champ.
Unless you've been living under a rock all these years, Chris Moneymaker is one of the pioneers when it comes to online poker and we're thrilled he is ambassador to our favorite online poker room, a proud member of the Gambling911.com family since 2006, ACR Poker.
The All-American Poker Trailblazer
Born in 1975 and hailing from the heartland of Tennessee, Chris Moneymaker stands as a testament to the quintessential American tale of transformation. An accountant by trade with a flair for numbers, Chris turned a casual fascination with online poker into a defining career that would etch his name into eternity.
An Unforeseen Odyssey to Glory
Chris’s dance with destiny began modestly in 2003, when he parlayed a meager $39 online satellite investment into a seat at the most coveted poker table on Earth—the World Series of Poker Main Event. His journey from obscurity to fame wasn’t just a win, it was a seismic shift for poker enthusiasts worldwide.
A Victory for the Everyman
In a stunning battle among 839 entrants, Chris emerged not just as the champion, netting a colossal $2.5 million, but as an emblem of hope—an embodiment of the belief that anyone with determination (and perhaps a sprinkle of luck) could achieve poker stardom.
