Americas Cardroom is marking its 25th Anniversary with the Dual Mystery Bounty Venoms, the biggest Venom series in the site`s history. Running August 13 through September 2, the online poker series features two major mystery bounty poker tournaments with a combined $15 million in guaranteed prize pools.

The series consists of the $12 Million GTD No-Limit Hold`em Venom and the $3 Million GTD Pot-Limit Omaha Venom. Both events carry a $2,650 buy-in and feature eight Day 1 flights, giving players more starting opportunities than any previous Venom.

The No-Limit Hold`em event includes a $500,000 top Mystery Bounty, while the Pot-Limit Omaha edition features a $250,000 top Mystery Bounty. Both tournaments also guarantee a minimum Mystery Bounty of $5,000.

Every player who advances to Day 2 is already guaranteed a cash finish before the bounty portion begins. Once Day 2 starts, every elimination earns a Mystery Bounty, making each knockout a major part of the action.

Players who enter multiple Day 1 flights can combine qualifying stacks for Day 2, creating another strategic layer across the series.

Americas Cardroom will also run the Venom Fever promotion, awarding more than 1,500 guaranteed seats through several qualification paths. Those include Direct Satellites, Mega Satellites, Beast tournaments, and Survivor Flips, with qualifiers starting from $0.

Beginning Monday, August 17, the schedule will expand with Venom Specials featuring more than $10 million in added-value guarantees throughout the remainder of the series.

Both Mystery Bounty Venoms begin with Day 1A on Thursday, August 13, followed by additional starting flights through Sunday, August 30. Day 2 takes place Monday, August 31. The No-Limit Hold`em tournament continues to Day 3 on Tuesday, September 1, before its final table on Wednesday, September 2. The Pot-Limit Omaha event concludes without a Day 3, with its final table also on Wednesday, September 2.

With eight Day 1 flights, record guarantees, and six-figure mystery bounties, the Dual Mystery Bounty Venoms give Americas Cardroom a major centerpiece for its 25th Anniversary online poker schedule.
