SAN JOSE, Costa Rica, Oct. 15, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- In support of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, ACR Poker is bringing back its annual online charity tournament this Wednesday, October 16th at 6pm ET. This year, the event features a $15,000 guaranteed prize pool and a $55 buy-in, with proceeds going to the United Breast Cancer Foundation (UBCF) to support their vital work in aiding individuals affected by breast cancer.

ACR Poker will make a charity donation, matching the final prize pool (up to $15,000).

Last year's charity tournament saw over 400 entrants and raised $20,000 for the American Cancer Society. ACR Poker is looking to surpass those numbers this year by not only encouraging the global poker community to come together for a great cause while having fun, but also committing to match the final prize pool up to $15,000 as a charity donation to the UBCF.

Poker fans can tune in to catch all the action online as the charity tournament will be live streamed on ACR Poker's Twitch channel. Viewers will also have the opportunity to win $66 tickets to ACR Poker's $1 Million GTD Venom Warmup, which will be given away during the stream.

The charity tourney will be hosted by renowned ACR Pros Katie Lindsay, who is fresh off a career-best win of $102,915 at the Moneymaker Tour Aruba Main Event, and Ebony Kenney, who recently made four final tables during the OSS XL in September. Also hosting is Svitlana 'Svetarik' Dryha, who joined ACR Poker's first-ever ACR Team Online in July.

"It's great to see how much the poker community comes together for these charity events. Last year's tournament was a huge success, and this year we're hoping to make an even bigger impact for such an important cause," said ACR Pro Katie Lindsay. "This is a great opportunity to join a fun event while supporting the UBCF's important work. We look forward to seeing you at the tables!"
