What it is
ACR Poker is the flagship room of the Winning Poker Network. It made its name by taking American players after the big rooms left the US market, and it is known for tournaments with large guarantees, the Venom above all.
It has a large player pool by offshore standards, drawn from the US and Latin America.
Licence status
ACR Poker holds no licence from any US state and none in the markets we cover (US, UK, Ireland, Spain, Germany, Portugal, South Africa and Ontario). Legal online poker in the US is limited to a handful of states with their own licensed rooms.
A foreign licence gives a US customer no route to a state regulator.
What to know
An unregulated room has no outside body checking game integrity or handling disputes over bots and collusion. Crypto prices can also move between deposit and withdrawal.
