ACR POKER AND CHRIS MONEYMAKER OFFER PLAYERS A CHANCE TO WIN $10K MAIN EVENT TICKET AND VIP LAS VEGAS EXPERIENCE
Compete against former world champ poker legend Chris Moneymaker heads-up
As the countdown to the Main Event of Vegas’ hottest summer series begins, ACR Poker is offering poker players the chance to win a “money-can’t-buy” Moneymaker Vegas Experience this July, including a two-week stay in Vegas.
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.

The bespoke version of Wazdan’s 16 Coins
adds Betsson branding and keeps Hold the Jackpot
and Cash Infinity
features.
Wazdan has launched 16 Coins Betsson, a bespoke branded version of its 16 Coins
title, in partnership with Betsson.
The release adapts Wazdan’s Coins
series format for Betsson players, combining the original game’s mechanics with operator-specific branding. The game is played across 16 independent reels in a 4×4 layout.
In 16 Coins Betsson, rewards are delivered through the Hold the Jackpot
bonus round rather than standard paying symbols in the base game. During the bonus, players collect Coin symbols across the grid with the objective of filling all positions to win the Grand Jackpot.
The game also includes Wazdan’s Cash Infinity
mechanic.
Andrzej Hyla, Chief Commercial Officer at Wazdan, said: “Delivering tailored experiences for our partners has always been an important part of our approach, and 16 Coins Betsson is a strong example of how we can adapt proven content while preserving the quality of the user experience.
“We are proud of what our team has achieved with this release and delighted to collaborate with Betsson on bringing a customised version of one of our most well-loved game formats to its players.”
