Bounty SnG Tournaments!

[TylerStroud]

Ok so I need to first say that john44john is the only reason I know about these tournaments since he told me that they existed and I've played a few now and theyre a great bit of fun and a nice way to ship if you're happy to play fairly aggressively.

Basically - If youre looking at a €5.00 + €0.50 SNG buyin for 10 runners? €2.50 goes to the prize pool, and €2.50 is a bounty on your own head. You knock a player out? You get their bounty. 1st 2nd and 3rd prize money is split 50% 30% 20% as it would normally be.

Ive been playing 6 man ones with the exact same deal only 70% and 30% to 1st and 2nd. But of course the bonus to coming 1st is that you get the guy you KO's bounty as well as your own returned to you, which totals up to some serious shippage.

I think these would be a big hit on PCUK as its something a bit different which would make a nice change. I am guessing its probably not possible but I'll mention them anyway cos theyre a good craic.

I like bounty / headhunter tournies too. Unfortunately, Boss haven't got them in the pipeline yet afaik, and it isn't something I can set up seperately to them.

played a few of these on other sites, they are crazy! just total carnage! Good fun though.
I also like the equal pay SnG that some site have, they are easy money!

In all honesty i didnt think it would be - didnt the technology was there. But still I recommend them. And theyre really soft on the site i was palying on. I won $5 on a freeroll and just been multi-tabling them for a laugh at 3am if I cant be assed to play anything sensible.

Aye, Poker.co.uk has these events. They are listed as 'Coolers' and pay 5 out of 10.

The trouble with you Tyler is that you say it's for agressive players, but you're not an agressive player.
I like the jackpot games, win 6 on trot and get 10,000 into your acount straight away? Worth a try I suppose, but you need to be doing it daily instead of SnG after SnG.

Ty for your input.

I just played my first bounty-hunter MTT on Sky - came 5/70, took 5 heads for a win of £54 woo-hooo !

Very enjoyable game, cant wait 'till (if) they start on poker.co.uk.

Unfortunately the site that I found them on with the Bounty SNGs is really new (only been up a few weeks) and has GAY withdrawl and deposit restrictions. Its about a billion times worse than anything ive seen before, so Im pretty sure Im just going to play and play and play on it till ive got so much cash that its worth withdrawing, or until i bust it all out.
