Unlock Crash Joker’s “Vault Break” bonus round for a shot at massive cash prizes

ACR Poker today formally launched Crash Joker, a brand-new progressive jackpot game designed for and by poker players. The launch follows successful beta testing on ACR Poker that has proven popular with players. As the first to introduce this new release from i3Soft, the trusted online poker site is bringing players a fresh, fast-paced gaming experience with a unique poker twist on the popular Crash casino game format.

Players really need to know when to hold ‘em and when to fold ‘em with this exciting addition to ACR Poker’s lineup. Crash Joker is all about timing, with every card dealt bringing players closer to the action, while challenging them to place their bets and watch as their winnings multiply with each card drawn. The tension builds as players must decide whether to cash out before the joker appears or keep going for a bigger multiple of the payout.

Adding to the excitement, players who hit a Four of a Kind or Straight Flush will trigger the explosive “Vault Break“ bonus round, where they compete for a share of the progressive jackpot, now sitting at over $5,000. And thanks to the “spillover effect”, even if players don’t win the big prize, they can still walk away with extra cash just for participating in the bonus round.

Crash Joker is already making waves, with several players enjoying some epic wins. Recent highlights include ACR Stormer UBPOKER turning a $1 bet into $1.5K, along with some jackpot moments like ‘grandof’ turning $1K into an $8.6K+ jackpot and ‘Happyface’ landing a $1K+ jackpot from a $2 bet. Other players jumping in on the action include ACR Stormer bigfishnoshrimp, who nearly hit a $200K win in one epic run. He cashed out for $130, but the multiplier kept climbing, eventually blasting past 7,000x.

“Crash Joker is so much fun! Simple concept, insanely fun execution. The game’s energy is infectious, and I love how every round surprises me,” said ACR Stormer UBPOKER. “Great game to jump into solo or with friends to see if you can strike the same cash out. A must-play for anyone who loves fast-paced, entertaining games that provide a big sweat for a huge multiplier.”

Crash Joker is now available to play exclusively on ACR Poker, with a mobile release soon on the horizon, bringing the fast-paced game to even more players, anytime, anywhere.

For further details on Crash Joker, read the ACR Poker Blog or visit ACRPoker.eu.
