Bounty tournaments divide value between the normal prize pool and rewards for eliminating opponents.
Fixed bounty
Each player carries a fixed knock-out reward. Eliminate that player and you earn the bounty according to the event rules.
Progressive knockout
In a progressive knockout, a player’s bounty can grow as they eliminate opponents, creating increasingly valuable targets.
Strategic effect
A hand that would be marginal in a normal event can become more attractive when winning it also captures a meaningful bounty. But the exact math depends on the bounty value, stacks and remaining prize pool.
Before entering
Check how much of the buy-in goes to the regular prize pool versus the bounty pool and whether bounties are cash, credits or another prize form.
