Phil’s Thrill Tournament

$10,300 High Stakes buy-in

You wanted Bigger, Badder, and Ballsier. So we listened. Then our CEO said, “Screw it—I’ll play too.”

Introducing Phil’s Thrill — a $10,300 buy-in slugfest running every Sunday at 2:30pm ET. It’s the biggest weekly tournament in ACR Poker history, built for high rollers who don’t flinch at five-figure swings—and love a good sweat with some serious bragging rights on the line.

Who’s Phil? And why is the tourney named after him?

That’d be Phil Nagy, CEO of WPN and high stakes proponent. This whole thing is his idea and he’s not content with just pulling the strings. He wants a seat at the table and when the mood strikes, he will show up, stack deep, and be ready to gamble with the best of ‘em.

Phil won’t be there every Sunday, but don’t be surprised when you see his name pop up next to some familiar faces like Chris Moneymaker and other ACR Pro heavyweights.

This tournament is where serious poker powerhouses collide.

$2,650 High Stakes Buy-in
Every Sunday at 3:30pm ET

First, we gave you Phil’s Thrill—the largest weekly tourney in ACR Poker history, with a $10,300 buy-in and the kind of heart-pounding pots that make even seasoned grinders sweat. It goes down every Sunday at 2:30pm ET.

And now… it’s time for its “Mini-Me” cousin.

Introducing Mini Phil’s Thrill

This weekly high-stakes event comes with a more approachable (but still powerful) $2,650 buy-in. With a $200,000 guarantee, it delivers the same adrenaline-fueled action and nosebleed drama that have made Phil’s Thrill a player favorite.

Like Dr. Evil’s Mini-Me, this tourney may be smaller in name—but it’s just as dangerous at the tables. One misstep, and you could be saying “Ouch, that’s a bad beat, baby!”

Satellites: Your Shortcut to the Big Show

Both Phil’s Thrill and Mini Phil’s Thrill feature satellite qualifiers, letting you win your way in for a fraction of the cost. For just $290, you could spin up a satellite seat into your $2,650 Mini Phil’s Thrill ticket. Now that’s what we call groovy.

Star-Studded Lineup

At Mini Phil’s Thrill, expect to see appearances from WPN CEO Phil Nagy (it is his namesake after all), poker icons like ACR Pro Chris Moneymaker, and a rotating cast of high rollers from across the globe. And, of course, plenty of railbirds will be perched on the virtual rail, watching all the high-stakes fireworks.

So whether you’re chasing glory in the biggest high-stakes doubleheader in online poker, or just want to grab your very own “Mini Thrill,” ACR Poker is the place to be every Sunday.
