🟩🎧 AHR Fresh Start
AHR Fresh Start is ColorUp Poker’s month-long Ace High Radio series — a multi-format grind where leaderboard points + bonus chips decide who takes center stage in the final showdown.
Every event feeds into one goal:
🟩🎧 AHR Headliner 💲500💰
Only the top performers earn their way in — and the more you play, the bigger your starting stack.

🎧 Why AHR Fresh Start is Different
Most series only reward the final few winners.
Fresh Start rewards:
The grinders
The regulars
The players who show up
You don’t just qualify —
You build your stack before the cards are even dealt.
When the 🎧 turns on and the AHR Headliner begins,
the players who put in the work arrive with the chips to prove it.
