🎯 Venom Fever: Your Shot at Big Money

Players can enter directly for $2,650, or qualify through Venom Fever satellites running until April 30. Satellite buy-ins start as low as $33, and 12 Mega Satellites are completely free to enter, giving players of all bankrolls a chance to secure their seat.

The previous edition of Venom PKO saw huge success. Player ‘Amygdaluss’ claimed $483,630 in first-place prize money and an additional $342,902 in bounties, with the thrilling final table streamed live featuring commentary from Michael Loncar, Justin Kelly, and Ebony Kenney.

“This latest Venom PKO edition is set to be huge once again,” said ACR Team Pro Chris Moneymaker, “especially since the last one in November smashed the $5 million guarantee with a $6.86 million prize pool. This tourney is for everyone, thanks to ACR giving players so many options to earn their Venom seat for pennies on the dollar.”

🏆 From Venom to OSS: More Action Ahead

The Venom PKO leads directly into ACR’s next major festival, the Online Super Series (OSS), running May 7–29 with a record $40 million guaranteed across dozens of events.
