The $5 Million Venom PKO was the big story over the weekend at ACR Poker as we finished the first two of the four Day 1 options. There were also great Venom Special tourneys on the docket.
Keep reading for more info in our October 22nd Sunday Recap.
Bahamas Bracelet Chase
We held our first 10-package GTD Bahamas Bracelet Chase satellite ($1,050 buy-in). There were exactly 100 total entrants, which meant we awarded 10 packages ($15,000 value each). There are three more satellites remaining to send players to the Atlantis Resort to compete in a $15 Million live tourney.
$750,000 GTD Venom Special High Roller
Our high roller tourney ($630 buy-in) was bumped up to $750,000 guaranteed as part of our Venom Special tourneys. There were 1,154 total entrants, which meant we topped up the prize pool to meet the guarantee. In all, there were 149 paid places, including the top-3:
- koolade55 -> $112,964
- Olelemaiko11 -> $107,105
- BadBeatVaccine777 -> $97,711
$200,000 GTD Sunday Special
With 960 total entries, the Sunday Special fell just short of the $200K guarantee. We, of course, made up the difference. 123 players took home dough in this $215 buy-in event, including the top three:
- pinguinachica -> $38,696
- Gilbertogyn -> $28,361
- gillobono -> $20,703
$300,000 GTD Warm Up
Our $300,000 Warm Up tourney was held yesterday with 2,966 total entries. That meant it finished $3,400 under the guarantee in this $109 buy-in event. Congrats to the 357 players who cashed. The top 3:
- soappalled-> $48,863
- CowPeanut -> $35,706
