Over the last year, our ACR Stormers team has gone from strength to more strength. We saw life-changing moments for three stormers who took part in one of our High Stakes Adventures. Individual channels are also growing at rapid speeds and individual goals of achieving Twitch partner are now a common theme within our ACR Stormers.
As we start 2024, our team is getting stronger with the introduction of three more streamers. We are profiling two today and one more (RaphDarko) tomorrow in a separate article.
MBen10 (Player Interview)
“I am a 30-year-old poker player from Wales! I have a 1-year-old daughter and a 3-year-old French Bulldog!
I started playing live poker when I was 18. I tried to play online (unsuccessfully) when I was around 21. I’ve loved the game since then, initially watching YouTube videos and Twitch streams to try and improve. I’m really eager to join ACR as I feel like it’s currently the fastest growing community and this seems to be a really good project to be part of.
You can see that ACR is passionate about growing the game, by pushing Twitch and the Stormers as much as they are. I’m really pleased to see how the European schedule (morning) has developed with more MTTs for Euro morning regs. This is very appealing to me also!
I originally got into Twitch to find a community and help improve alongside other like-minded poker players. I feel like ACR fits in really well with that and what I want to do as a Twitch streamer moving forward.”

520AceOfSpades is a husband, father of two and a guy who simply loves to play poker. Growing up, his parents would play stud mixed games in their garage on the weekend and he eventually was invited to play. He has also run a poker room, dealt NL holdem cash games and tournaments, and has played online poker for the last 20 years.
In March 2023, he started streaming and has quickly built a positive and generous community. 520AceOfSpades’ bankroll was built through giveaways and the generosity of others, specifically BensBenz.
520AceOfSpades is a huge proponent of bankroll management and giving others bankroll building opportunities through giveaways on his channel. His largest score was during a BensBenz home game where he won a $2,650 seat to the $5 Million Venom PKO.
Being part of the ACR Stormers has been his goal since the day he started playing on ACR in March 2023.
“Seeing how unified the ACR Stream Team is across the board and the support they provide to one another is unmatched across the entire poker community,” 520AceOfSpades said. “It is an honor to be joining the team and be accepted into the ACR Poker family.”
520AceOfSpades’ future plans are to continue to evolve as a poker player and streamer, promoting poker through positivity, and to help create the next poker boom while representing the ACR Stormers. #BeardedPokerDad
