Chance Kornuth’s $50K WSOP High Roller Journey Captured in New ACR Film

The film documents Event #55, a tournament that attracted 110 entries and a $5.225 million prize pool, featuring poker heavyweights like Daniel Negreanu and Martin Kabrhel. Beyond the tension of the felt, Kornuth dissects his own aggressive betting patterns and the tactical second-guessing that defines elite play. He also explores broader industry concerns with fellow competitors, specifically debating whether structural changes to late registration and re-entry windows could better protect recreational players.

Kornuth, a four-time WSOP bracelet winner, joined the ACR Poker Pro team in May 2026. The documentary serves as a companion to his recent performance, which includes final table appearances in September’s Dual Mystery Bounty Venom events. By pairing tournament footage with candid Discord discussions and table banter, the project provides a comprehensive view of the decision-making process required to navigate one of the year’s most grueling fields. The full feature is currently available on the ACR Poker YouTube channel.
