The action this Sunday was intense at the tables of ACR Poker. As part of that day’s schedule, several events distributed significant prizes, including one of the site’s most demanding weekly tournaments: the High Stakes Phil’s Thrill, reserved for players willing to face a five-figure buy-in. It is a tournament that makes anyone sweat with its US$10,300 buy-in and where only the most experienced take control.
Great results: 70 entries, big risks in the Phil’s Thrill
This tournament, played every Sunday at 2:30 p.m. (ET), has a US$10,300 entry and is designed for high-level players looking to compete for big prizes and prestige at the tables. The competition is named after Phil Nagy, CEO of ACR, who in addition to promoting the event also participates in the field.
In the edition held last Sunday, the Phil’s Thrill gathered 70 entries, which allowed for a total prize pool of US$700,000. As usually happens in these types of high stakes tournaments, only a small group of players managed to make it into the money, with nine paid positions.
Among the participants was Phil Nagy himself, who managed to advance in the tournament before being eliminated in 36th place.

For those who dream of participating in this exclusive tournament without directly paying the US$10,300 entry fee, there are also qualifying satellites. Every Sunday, qualifiers with a US$1,050 buy-in are held, each guaranteeing at least one seat for the main event. Additionally, players can start their journey from Survivor Flips Step tournaments with entries starting from $3.15.
With big prizes and big stakes like this, Phil’s Thrill has quickly become one of the most attractive weekly tournaments for high rollers within ACR Poker. And every Sunday promises another high-level battle at the tables.
