ACR Poker is dealing a $20 million Online Super Series from Sunday, November 8, but this isn’t another copy-and-paste festival. The room has split the OSS into daytime and evening schedules, with 143 tournaments, four Main Events and separate leaderboard races running through November 24.
That gives grinders two very different sets of start times to work around. There’s also a $1 million Moneymaker Mystery PKO in the mix, complete with a headline $100,000 mystery bounty that needs a little explaining before anyone starts daydreaming about the knockout.
What’s on the November 2026 OSS schedule?
ACR’s November festival has 77 events in its Day Series and another 66 in the Evening Series. Buy-ins run from $16.50 to $2,650, with guarantees ranging from $10,000 to $1.5 million, so you can take a stab at the festival without pretending your bankroll belongs in the nosebleeds.
| OSS track | Events | Typical start times (ET) | UK equivalent (GMT) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Day Series, red in the lobby | 77 | 10:15am to 2:05pm | 3:15pm to 7:05pm |
| Evening Series, purple in the lobby | 66 | 4pm to 8pm | 9pm to 1am the next day |
Those are general start windows, not the start time of every individual tournament. For UK readers, the red lobby is the friendlier afternoon and early-evening grind, while the purple slate is better suited to players who don’t mind staying up late.
Four Main Events carry $4.25 million guaranteed
The four Main Events alone account for $4.25 million in advertised guarantees. The top two both have $1.5 million on the line, but the $66 Turbo Main is the one that might catch the eye of lower-stakes players looking for a big-field sweat.
| Main Event | Buy-in | Guarantee | Day 2 (ET) |
|---|---|---|---|
| OSS #2 Main | $2,650 | $1,500,000 | Nov 23, 1:30pm |
| OSS #3 Main | $1,050 | $1,500,000 | Nov 23, 1:30pm |
| OSS #4 Main | $215 | $750,000 | Nov 23, 1:30pm |
| OSS #5 Main Turbo | $66 | $500,000 | Nov 22, 1:05pm |
There’s a big structure difference behind those price tags. The $2,650 and $1,050 events advertise 350,000 starting chips and 15-minute levels; the $215 has a 300,000 stack and 15-minute levels. The $66 Turbo runs five-minute levels, which means your comfortable 40 big blinds can disappear rather quickly if you spend the evening card-dead.
Satellites are scheduled for the Main Events, with details accessible through their Day 1 lobbies. Check the destination event and the dates you need to return: a cheap ticket isn’t much use if Day 2 clashes with work or another deep run.
Leaderboard money for the regular grinders
ACR’s briefing advertises more than $77,000 in leaderboard prizes across the series competitions. The Day Series leaderboard winner is due $7,500 plus a January Venom ticket, while the Evening Series winner receives $5,000 plus a January Venom ticket.
Some purple evening events carry a US flag and count towards an additional weekly US leaderboard. Players may score in multiple eligible races, so look for the relevant lobby markers rather than assuming every tournament adds points to every leaderboard.
The $109 Moneymaker Mystery PKO is the big side quest
Named for 2003 WSOP Main Event champion and ACR pro Chris Moneymaker, OSS #1 is a $109 Mystery PKO with $1 million guaranteed. Nearly 250 starting flights run through November 22, when Day 2 gets going at 3:05pm ET (8:05pm GMT) and the bounty hunt switches on from the first hand.
Day 1 flights use 5,000 starting chips, 10-minute blind levels and roughly two hours and 20 minutes of play. If you qualify more than once, your surviving stacks are combined for Day 2, giving players a reason to fire another flight if it fits their budget and they want more ammunition for the knockout stage.
That $100,000 mystery bounty has a catch
The biggest advertised mystery prize is $100,000, but this is a Mystery PKO, not a regular mystery-bounty tournament. Pull that top prize and $50,000 is paid to you straight away; the other $50,000 gets slapped onto your own progressive bounty, making you a seriously tempting target.
The same 50/50 rule applies to the progressive bounty already on a player you bust. You’re still hunting big money, but don’t mistake the number on the graphic for an instant six-figure cash payout. The distinction changes how you value knockouts and how keen the table becomes to tangle with you.
What about The Quattro?
Separate from the 143-event OSS schedule, ACR has also rolled out The Quattro: three weekly Mystery PKOs sharing $75,000 in combined guarantees. They have short Day 1 flights, allow eligible qualifying stacks to be combined and bring survivors back every Sunday at 2:30pm ET (7:30pm GMT), beginning November 8.
| Quattro buy-in | Weekly guarantee | Top mystery bounty |
|---|---|---|
| $1.10 | $5,000 | $250 |
| $5.50 | $20,000 | $1,500 |
| $33 | $50,000 | $5,000 |
About a quarter of each starting-flight field advances, with eight-minute levels and flights lasting around 100 minutes. That makes The Quattro a different kind of schedule commitment from the big Main Events, particularly for micro-stakes players who want a Sunday Day 2 without stumping up $109 or more.
Which events are worth circling?
If you’re a regular MTT grinder, the new red-versus-purple schedule is arguably the most useful change: you can build sessions around the hours you actually play. The four Main Events have the biggest guarantees, the Moneymaker offers a long qualifying window, and The Quattro keeps the small-buy-in bounty hunt ticking over every week.
There’s plenty on the go at ACR beyond the OSS, too. We covered the room’s Turbo Tuesday and Halloween PKO launch recently, while our ACR Poker review breaks down the software, games and first-deposit offer. As ever with a multi-flight, decide which days you can play before you start firing bullets.
