Poker enthusiasts around the world are gearing up for the $5m GTD venom PKO tournament set to return to ACR poker on October 19th.

This event is known as the world's biggest progressive knockout tournament.

ACR Pro Chris Moneymaker expressed his anticipation for the tournament, stating: "Our Venom PKO is well known as the world's biggest progressive knockout tourney. We will again have four day 1 options, and we expect to shatter the guarantee, just like the previous six times it has run."

The Venom PKO offers players a chance to participate in high-stake hands with individual bounties worth tens of thousands of dollars.

While the buy-in for the $5m Venom PKO is $2,650, players have multiple paths to entry.

They can qualify through Venom Blitz satellites and step tourneys for a fraction of the cost. Additionally, Venom Fever satellites guarantee 633 seats.

Direct buy-ins for Venom Fever start at $33 and mega satellites provide a chance to qualify for free.

Moneymaker also revealed that there will be added specials on every day 1 and day 2 of the tournament.

ACR Poker recently offered players the chance to win a ‘poker experience of a lifetime’ with a super high roller series in Vietnam, which included a $100,000 package covering tournament buy-ins, accommodation and business class airfare.

Moreover, Americas Cardroom, the parent company of ACR Poker, has been proactive in forming partnerships and sponsorships. They became the official sponsor of the tournament poker edge (TPE) podcast, offering TPE members access to exclusive promotions, freerolls and giveaways.
