FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Americas Cardroom Hosts Second Million Dollar Sunday on the Eve of Black Friday’s Anniversary This April.

San Jose, Costa Rica – February 23, 2015 – It took America almost 4 years to realize a $1 million guaranteed online poker tournament. But it’ll only take another 7 weeks to see its second $1 million prize hit the felt. On the eve of the 4th anniversary of Black Friday, Americas Cardroom is hosting yet another $1 million guaranteed poker tournament. Million Dollar Sunday is set to get underway on Sunday, April 12th at 3pm ET.

It’s the last Sunday before the anniversary of Black Friday and the announcement comes the morning after Americas Cardroom held its first $1 million guaranteed tournament.

“It took a bit of time, but America has emerged from the shadows of Black Friday brighter than ever,” stated Michael Harris, spokesperson for Americas Cardroom. “With another $1 million now on the schedule, we’re inching closer to what everyone in the United States has been craving. Yes, that weekly Sunday million dollar tournament could happen sooner than you think.”

Americas Cardroom’s first $1 million guarantee, held on Sunday, February 22nd ran smoothly and saw 1,799 entries compete for a piece of the $1 million prize pool. ForTheNguyen lived true to the “win” in Winning Millions, besting the field to claim the $200,000 first place prize.

ForTheNguyen wasn’t the only big winner on Sunday. Poker player mschu1213 took first place in the $300,000 Second Chance tournament to claim $57,000. Plus, Americas Cardroom also handed out its first five WSOP packages through online qualifiers. Poker players ealFizhh, HpAsus, Pokemon Master, youareon, and duhbest each secured a $12,500 World Series of Poker prize package that includes the $10k buy-in and money for travel and accommodations.

The US-friendly site guaranteed a massive $1.5 million in tournament prize pools yesterday alone. Americas Cardroom has emerged as one of the fastest growing sites in the United States and continues to boast top marks for payment processing.

The $1 million guaranteed tournament is a testament to how big the community has grown. The announcement of another $1 million Sunday tournament just seven weeks after the first $1 million guarantee should boost the confidence of US poker players in a major way.

Satellites aren’t the only way to win a seat into the next Million Dollar Sunday Tournament. Through Americas Cardroom’s Spin To Get In feature, players can wager between $0.01 and $1 for a shot at winning a seat in the Millions. Only yesterday, 8 players spun into the $1 million GTD tournament and earned a seat for $1 or less. A total of 21 players were given a seat to the tournament since the new feature was launched.

Qualifiers for the next Million Dollar Sunday, scheduled for April 12th at 3pm ET, are now live in the Americas Cardroom tournament lobby.

More details on the $1 million tournament can be found at AmericasCardroom.eu.

Bitcoin deposits now available in the Americas Cardroom online poker cashier.

 

ACR San Jose, Costa Rica – January 9, 2015 – Getting money onto an online poker account has now officially become more convenient. Leading US online poker site Americas Cardroom today announced a groundbreaking move in payment processing. The poker site today becomes one of the first poker rooms to accept Bitcoin for deposits, with maximum daily transactions as high as $1,000 and minimum deposits as low as $5.

“At Americas Cardroom, we’re always looking for new ways to make the lives of poker players easier. That’s why we’ve added Bitcoin to our lineup of payment methods,” stated Michael Harris, spokesperson for Americas Cardroom. “The payment system is now available in the Americas Cardroom cashier for all our players.”

Bitcoin, a peer-to-peer payment system and type of virtual currency originally introduced in 2009, took the world by storm in 2013. It is open-source, which means that its design is public, nobody owns or controls Bitcoin and everyone can take part.

Today, Bitcoin ATMs can be found in several locations in North America and around the world. It’s only a matter of time before more Bitcoin ATMs open up in the United States.

For now Bitcoin deposits are available at Americas Cardroom from the Cashier section of the poker client. The US-friendly site announced that withdrawals will follow in the next few days.

Bitcoin deposits are immediately converted to US dollars and available for real money play at Americas Cardroom’s online poker tables.

On February 22nd, Americas Cardroom will be guaranteeing $1 million in Winning Millions. Players can buy directly in for $500+$40 or find a low buy-in qualifier for just a few dollars.

Spin to Win Tournament Seats on ACR

Spin to get In on ACR

Americas Cardroom has added a new way for players to  get into poker tournaments they otherwise would be able to join…….

Spin to get in on ACR

The premise is easy, just play 1¢, 25¢ or $1 on a 3 card slot machine style spin while on the lobby of any Sit’N’Go or Poker Tournament.

Get 3 of a kind on your spin and you are in that tournament!

Payoff percentage is an overall 98% on the Spin to get In. The larger your spin wager compared to the buy-in you are trying for will make your chance of winning better. For example, a $1 spin for a $11 buy-in will win more often than a 1c spin for that same $11 buy-in.

ACR also offers all their players a 100% Sign up Bonus, Hourly on Demand Free Rolls and the Best nightly schedule of guaranteed poker tournaments everyday.

Americas Cardroom “Spin to get In” Press Release:

Online Poker Players Can’t Get Enough of Americas Cardroom’s Spin To Get In Feature.

ACR Spin to get In San Jose, Costa Rica – December 18, 2014 – It turns out online poker players really like the idea of turning a penny into a seat in a major poker tournament. Americas Cardroom today announced that online poker players have won 3,000 seats through the site’s new Spin To Get In feature. The slot machine-like feature invites players to spin three reels to win a seat in a poker tournament instead of playing a satellite.

“In the world of poker, there are bad beats. This is pretty much the complete opposite,” stated Americas Cardroom spokesperson Michael Harris. “We’ve handed out 3,000 seats to major poker tournaments through our Spin To Get In feature and we’re thrilled to see so many players reaping the rewards.”

Spin To Get In can be found in the lobby of any online poker tournament and Sit & Go. Players place a bet of $0.01, $0.25, or $1 and spin a wheel, much like a slot machine, but with cards. If a 3-of-a-kind shows up, the lucky player wins a seat into the tournament that they would otherwise buy directly into.

Spin To Get In is also an avenue for online players who bust out of a tournament and are unable to re-enter or buy back in. The Spin To Get In feature is also available to players who haven’t yet registered for a tournament, so players are invited to spin their way to a seat without playing a single hand of poker.

Harris notes that Spin To Get In is proving popular with players looking to get into February’s Winning Millions poker tournament.

“To be able to turn a penny into a potential $200,000 (1st place prize for Winning Millions) payday is a game changer,” noted Harris. “Now that this feature is live, we won’t be surprised if we see quite a few players in our $1 million guarantee from Spin to Get In.”

Players will see the new feature located next to the Register button in the lobby of any Sit & Go or tournament. More information on Spin To Get In and Winning Millions can be found at AmericasCardroom.eu.
