Starting this weekend, ACR Poker players can qualify for a chance to win a heads-up battle with poker legend Chris Moneymaker. After battling each other through various qualifying rounds, two players will each compete against Moneymaker for the opportunity to win a 14-night luxury stay in Las Vegas, $10K buy-in to a Main Event, and an exclusive itinerary of activities around Las Vegas, immersing them in a unique VIP atmosphere.

ACR Poker players can join one of four $8.60 buy-in multi-table tournaments (MTTs) on June 8th, 9th, 15th and 16th (all at 3pm ET) for a chance to win. The top two winners from each MTT will advance to a final 8-handed Sit & Go on Monday, June 17th at 3pm ET. The top two finishers in the Sit & Go final will then face ACR Pro Chris Moneymaker in online heads-up battles on Tuesday, June 18th, playing a best of three.

For poker players looking to witness the action, the epic heads-up matches will be live-streamed on ACR’s Twitch channel. Whoever beats Moneymaker will win an incredible prize package, which includes a round-trip flight, luxury accommodation from July 1st-14th, $10,000 entry to the prestigious Vegas Main Event, entry to an exclusive ACR Pros Meet-up event, plus a unique opportunity to spend time with Moneymaker in Las Vegas.

“This is a great opportunity for poker players to step up their game and experience the thrill of playing in Las Vegas,” said Moneymaker. “I’m looking forward to welcoming the winners to Sin City and giving them a glimpse into life as an ACR Pro. I’m also excited to see who has what it takes to beat me in a heads-up battle!”

The Moneymaker Vegas Experience promotion gives poker players the chance to learn from one of the best in the game. Moneymaker has been on a recent hot streak, finishing in 6th place in ACR Poker’s $12.5 Million GTD Venom tourney, bagging $382,007. He followed that up with a magical win at Event #1 (GG Million$ Live) at the Triton Super High Roller Series in Montenegro, earning $903,000.

Moneymaker also noted that ACR Poker is offering players further opportunities to secure their spot in the Vegas Main Event through a variety of satellite tournaments running throughout June.

QTech Games, the leading game aggregator for all emerging markets, has signed its latest supplier partnership with global B2B content developer and provider Yoriginal Games, enabling its platform customers to access the supplier’s expansive slots catalogue.

Yoriginal’s popular titles are crafted for the new wave in igaming: short-session players, mobile-first users, and operators who want real GGR performance. These eclectic games are also recognised for their player-retention features and sticky mechanics, and draw from Yoriginal Games’ deeper well of crash, scratch, slot and more traditional table-games content.

These games are light and lightning-fast to load, providing a ready solution to overcoming local obstacles to engagement in emerging markets, like Africa and LatAm, such as handset quality limitations, restricted access to fast networks, and high data costs.

This breakthrough announcement with QTech now affords the supplier unprecedented international reach across more emerging markets. In turn, incorporating this ever-evolving production line emphasizes QTech Games’ diverse range of gaming options, providing a definitive one-stop shop, which has fast become the “go-to” solution for worldwide operators across developing territories.

As the fastest-growing aggregator over the past few years, QTech’s platform offers the most expansive gaming portfolio around, localised for each region, with native mobile apps, powerful reporting and marketing tools, and 24/7 local-language support.

QTech Games CEO, Philip Doftvik, said: “We’re committed to rolling out more and more high-class content and product innovation that drives revenue for our partners. So, this deal with Yoriginal Games extends our impressive sequential pipeline for 2026 – and showcases our flexible array of content which solves for fine-grained, local requirements in countries where light, rapid-load games are a must. Their games are sleek and modern in design, backed by robust analytics to drive higher engagement and prolonged dwell-time.”

Kirill Bykov, CEO at Yoriginal Games, added: “At Yoriginal Games, we specialize in fast-paced, original casino games that bring instant excitement and big wins, crash, mines, dice, limbo, plinko, keno, blackjack, roulette and more. And while we’ve initially specialised in fast games, we also offer our premium aggregator partners, like QTech, access to our signature YOpen RGS program for developers, whereby QTech can benefit from even more of our partner slots content this year, above all in the domain of localised games.

“QTech’s platform is a gateway to global audiences, and we can’t wait to see how our highly engaging games perform across a largely greenfield landscape of emerging markets for Yoriginal.”

Allwyn UK, operator of The National Lottery, has become the Official Volunteer Learning and Development Partner of Glasgow 2026 Commonwealth Games.

More than 3000 volunteers will be at the heart of the action when the Games return to Glasgow this year from 23 July to 2 August. The partnership will support the delivery of a training programme that will ensure every volunteer is ready to help stage a world-class festival of sport and culture.

Supporting thousands of Games volunteers

Allwyn backs the volunteering programme through its Social Value Fund, an annual £1 million fund that Allwyn finances to support initiatives as part of its commitment to operate The National Lottery in an environmentally and socially responsible way.

For Glasgow 2026, Allwyn’s investment gives all volunteers access to an exceptional online learning portal and in-person training. The programme equips volunteers for roles across event and venue support, transport, media services, content creation, athlete support, and ceremonies activity, ensuring every volunteer is ready to help deliver a world-class festival of sport and culture.

As part of its commitment to creating lasting social value, Allwyn is enabling colleagues to join the Glasgow 2026 volunteering team. This initiative ensures Allwyn’s commitment to volunteering translates into tangible on-the-ground impact and supports the smooth delivery of the Games for athletes, spectators and communities across Scotland.

Post‑event evaluation will also be carried out to measure the programme’s impact and ensure the benefits of volunteering continue long after the final medal of the Games is won.

Eilidh Doyle to champion Glasgow 2026 volunteers

Eilidh Doyle, Scotland’s most decorated Track and Field athlete, is supporting the campaign to highlight the vital role of volunteers. Doyle, a three-time Commonwealth Games silver medallist — including at Glasgow 2014 — and Team Scotland flagbearer at Gold Coast 2018, will work with Allwyn as an ambassador to celebrate and champion the volunteers who are “the heartbeat” of the Games.

Scottish Para Cyclist Fin Graham, the reigning Paralympic and world champion who hopes to represent Team Scotland at Glasgow 2026, also attended the partnership launch at the Sir Chris Hoy Velodrome.

Andria Vidler, Chief Executive Officer of National Lottery operator, Allwyn, said: “The Commonwealth Games are a cornerstone of the sporting calendar and volunteers help make them exceptional. Allwyn is proud to power the Glasgow 2026 volunteer programme through our Social Value Fund, helping ensure every volunteer is ready to deliver a world-class Games.

“I’m especially pleased that colleagues from across Allwyn will join the 3000‑strong volunteer team – an experience that will benefit the Games, local communities and our people alike.”

Diane McLeod, Director of Workforce and Games Services at Glasgow 2026, said: “Our campaign for Glasgow 2026 volunteers had an incredible response with thousands of individuals putting themselves forward to support the Games to return to Glasgow. We’re now in the selection phase, reviewing applications and creating a diverse group of both experienced and first-time volunteers to bring the Games to life.

“Their passion is reflective of the spirit of the Commonwealth Games and with Allwyn’s support we can deliver an enhanced volunteer training programme that will prepare more than 3000 volunteers for this Summer’s event.”

Eilidh Doyle said: “As an athlete, I can tell you that volunteers are integral to the success of a Games. They are the brilliantly efficient army working behind the scenes to ensure everything runs on time and to create a legacy of community impact. I have discovered the joy of volunteering for myself, supporting as a volunteer within schools and Scottish Athletics.

“Glasgow is one of the most passionate sporting cities on the planet, and I’m sure the volunteers will enhance its reputation as a host of world-class events. I can’t wait to help show how our 2026 volunteers will once again be the legends of the Games.”
