Unique Bounty Formats to Keep Players Engaged
The PokerGO Bounty Blitz series kicks off with Event #1, a No-Limit Hold’em Knockout tournament, which will follow the traditional knockout format, where players eliminate their opponents for a bounty.
Event #2 will introduce the Escalator format, which is expected to stir up excitement as the bounties increase throughout the tournament. Initially, bounties will be worth $500 during open registration. Once registration closes, eliminations will be worth $1,000. As the tournament progresses and the field narrows to one full table before the bubble, the bounty value will be recalculated by dividing the remaining prize pool by the number of players still in contention.
Event #3 will feature the Quattro bounty format, which ups the ante by increasing bounties to $8,000 once 25% of the field remains. Players will be motivated to stay in the game longer to capture these substantial bounties.
Next up, Event #4 will feature the Progressive Knockout format, which allows the winner of each elimination to receive half of the bounty, while the other half is added to their own bounty, incentivizing players to continue building their personal prize pool.
Event #5 will introduce the Mystery Bounty format, which has become increasingly popular in poker circles over the past few years. Players will not know the value of their bounty until they eliminate an opponent, adding an element of mystery and surprise to every knockout.
Finally, Event #6 will return to the No-Limit Hold’em Knockout format, similar to the first event, bringing the series to a thrilling conclusion.
