Venom Tournaments at Americas Cardroom Rake in Over $10.2M Across NLH and PLO

(AsiaGameHub) –   Americas Cardroom has concluded its most recent Venom tournaments, distributing over $10.2 million in prize money across its No-Limit Hold’em and Pot-Limit Omaha mystery bounty events, drawing a worldwide player base and delivering substantial payouts.

The $8 million guaranteed NLH Venom event attracted 3,233 entrants, generating a prize pool of $8,082,500. Its PLO counterpart, with a $2 million guarantee, drew 871 participants and amassed $2,177,500. Both tournaments comfortably surpassed their respective guarantees.

KYOBLUK claimed the NLH title and $532,918 following a final table deal. In the mystery bounty format, Rybka1294 secured the top bounty of $555,000. KevinParcoeur finished second, earning $453,040 along with an additional $219,780 bounty.

Americas Cardroom Pro Chris Moneymaker advanced deep into the final table and ultimately placed ninth. “I’m proud to have reached the final table in such a competitive field,” stated Moneymaker. “It truly highlights how challenging and international these events have become.”

The NLH final table showcased a diverse mix of players from Europe, North America, South America, and other regions around the world.

In the PLO tournament, 4m4nhasnonforme emerged victorious, taking home $210,315 after competing against a field of Pot-Limit Omaha specialists. The largest bounty of the event, $200,000, was awarded to MatasSembolas. Similar to the NLH tournament, the PLO final table included competitors from multiple countries.

Since its launch in 2019, the Venom series has established a strong track record, initially generating $6,382,500 in prize money from a $5 million guarantee. That inaugural edition also earned a GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS title for the largest cryptocurrency jackpot in an online poker tournament, featuring a Bitcoin payout of $1,050,650.

Recent editions have maintained a comparable scale. In February 2026, the series produced $9,182,500 in NLH prize pools and $2,092,500 in PLO prize money, setting the stage for the latest results.

With robust participation across both formats and continued global representation at the final tables, the Venom remains a cornerstone event on the Americas Cardroom tournament calendar.
