When ACR Poker launched Saturdays With Phil, the goal was simple: give players a chance to battle directly with ACR Poker CEO Phil Nagy.
Since then, players have been doing exactly that.
Every Saturday, Phil has been jumping into a full lineup of small- and mid-stakes tournaments under his screen name justsomefish72, giving players a rare opportunity to bluff the boss, win pots against the CEO, and maybe even send him to the rail before the money.
The current run continues through this Saturday, June 27th, but what comes next could make Saturdays even more exciting.
One Last Chance To Battle Phil
Phil’s Saturday grind has included events such as:
- Phil’s Saturday Mystery – $1,500 GTD
- Phil’s Saturday PLO – $750 GTD 6-Max
- Venom Jersey R/A Sat – 10x Jerseys GTD
- Phil’s Saturday PKO – $1,500 GTD
- Phil’s Saturday Freezeout – $1,000 GTD
- Phil’s Saturday Main Event – $3,000 GTD
- Phil’s Saturday Mini Main – $1,500 GTD
- Phil’s Saturday Mystery Turbo – $500 GTD
- Phil’s Saturday Deep Turbo PKO – $1,000 GTD
Alongside the regular schedule, players have also been competing in special low-buy-in merch tournaments where official ACR Poker gear can be won for just $2.60.
If you’ve been meaning to take your shot at the CEO, this Saturday is your final shot.
July Saturdays Will Be Must-Play Events Too
As one chapter ends, another begins.
Starting July 25, Saturdays will become the exclusive home of Day 1 Turbo Flights for ACR Poker’s upcoming $250 Buy-In, $2.5 Million GTD 25th Anniversary Tournament.
Created to celebrate 25 years of ACR Poker, this special event delivers one of the biggest guarantees of the year at one of the most accessible buy-ins.
Every Saturday beginning July 25th, players will have the opportunity to enter:
- $27.50 Mega Satellite – 10:45am ET
- Day 1 Turbo Flight – 1:30pm ET
These Saturday flights will run throughout the summer, giving players an opportunity to begin building their stacks months before the tournament’s regular Day 1 schedule begins.
Get A Head Start On The Field
The first standard Day 1 flight for the 25th Anniversary Tournament doesn’t begin until September 30th, making the Saturday Turbo Flights the earliest opportunity to get into the action.
Even better, players can continue firing throughout the summer because the tournament allows stack accumulation. That means qualifying stacks from multiple Day 1 flights can be combined, creating the potential for a much larger starting stack heading into Day 2.
For players looking to maximize their edge, every Saturday represents another chance to build, improve, and add to their position before the full field arrives.
From Battling Phil To Playing For Millions
Saturdays With Phil started as a way to bring the ACR Poker community closer together at the tables.
Now, Saturdays are evolving into something even bigger.
Whether you’re taking your final shot at justsomefish72, winning exclusive ACR Poker merchandise, satelliting into the action for $27.50, or building a stack for the $250 Buy-In, $2.5 Million GTD 25th Anniversary Tournament, Saturdays are quickly becoming one of the most important days of the week on ACR Poker.
Mark your mark this Sunday.
