When the high-rollers of the poker world descend on Monte Carlo in November for the Triton Poker Super High Roller Series, many of them might have even more eyes on them than usual. That's because plenty of them will have been drafted into fantasy teams across the world, as ACR Poker is once again offering the opportunity to put together an eight-person fantasy team to compete for a share of huge cash prizes.
Following the success of its Fantasy League Las Vegas during the 2024 World Series of Poker, ACR Poker has announced plans to run it back during the upcoming Triton Monte Carlo stop. Last year's winners on the French Riviera included Jason Koon, above, who took down the $26K PLO event for $365K.

From October 15-30, you can register via the ACR Poker client for either the $25 buy-in or $109 buy-in leagues. You have the ability to partake in both if you choose to, and there's no limit to the number of teams you can assemble.
"After seeing how much fun players had during our Vegas edition, we knew we had to bring our Fantasy Poker League back," said ACR Pro Chris Moneymaker. "Whether you’re a poker player, a fantasy sports fan, or just looking to join the action, our Fantasy Poker League is a great way to draft your fantasy squad of poker pros battling it out in Monte Carlo’s Super High Roller Series and take your shot at big rewards.”
ACR Poker Fantasy League Monte Carlo allows you to put together a team of high rollers to compete for cash prizes. Each of the attending poker professionals have a set price point and entrance into either of the leagues provides you with a $250 virtual budget to cobble together your team of eight. As your selected players compete in Monte Carlo, your team will earn points based on how they perform in each event. The more points you accrue, the better your chances at earning cash prizes.
ACR Poker has put together a list of the competing professionals, complete with a variety of statistical breakdowns to help you assemble your squad. Throughout the series, you can check in on your team's progress by monitoring the daily leaderboard and seeing how your team stacks up against the competition.
In the build up to the draft for the Fantasy League: Las Vegas, PokerOrg spoke with several ACR Poker Pros to get the inside scoop on the best players to pick. While the size and scope of the events may not match up exactly, it can't hurt to take a look at who the pros saw value in.
