ACR Poker is giving players another chance to turn their online grind into a live poker dream with an Online Day 1 Qualifier to the coveted Battle of Malta (BOM) Main Event which guarantees €1.5 million.
BOM stands as one of Europe’s most iconic poker festivals, celebrated for its electric atmosphere, elite competition, and unforgettable player experiences. This year, players can skip the live Day 1 Main Event grind and qualify straight from home with ACR Poker’s Online Day 1 Qualifier this Sunday, September 14th, heading to Malta already locked in for a payout.
The Online Day 1 Qualifier starts at 10:30am ET with a $625 + $75 buy-in, and competitors will play down to 15% of the field. Players who survive will receive the tournament’s minimum cash when they check in at the BOM live event and their chip count will be automatically transferred to Day 2 in Malta (November 2nd-5th, 2025).
Players seeking lower-cost routes to the Online Day 1 Qualifier can join Last-Chance Satellites, including a $66 Mega Satellite on Sunday, September 14th at 9:05am ET, with Super Sats Freerolls and $6.60 feeders available starting Friday, September 12th.
“Opportunities like this are what poker is all about,” said ACR Pro Chris Moneymaker. “The Battle of Malta is a bucket-list event for many players, and being able to qualify online makes it accessible to everyone, with a shot at huge prizes in one of Europe’s most exciting live events. I love that ACR is opening that door for players everywhere.”
BOM runs from October 28th-November 5th at Casino Malta, featuring a revamped nine-day schedule with a €2 million guarantee, including the €2,200 buy-in ACR Super High Roller and plenty of exciting off-the-felt activities. Last October, BOM reached new heights with a prize pool exceeding €4.7 million and participants from over 60 countries.
In July, ACR Poker and BOM hosted the first-ever online edition of the beloved European live poker festival, featuring 68 events and $5 million guaranteed. With buy-ins from $5.50, players of all levels had the chance to join the fun and compete for great prizes. Ten players were also awarded €8,000 travel packages to October’s BOM live event, courtesy of ACR Poker’s Beast tournament.
