UKOPS 03 £15,000 Bounty Hunter

SCOTFOX

I have qualified for a Bounty Hunter comp next Friday and i would like to clarify how the bounty actually works plze.

If you knock another player out in the comp do you get 75% of his chip value as a CASH PRIZE and the other 25% goes onto your own head value?

Morning scot, you bank 75% of their BOUNTY if you knock them out, and the remaining 25% gets added to your bounty.
For example, you have qualified for a £110 bounty hunter, so minus the £10 rake the remaining £100 is split in two, £50 goes into the prize pool and £50 is the bounty on your head for others to win if they knock you out.
If you knock someone out you bank 75% (£37.50 is yours no matter what) then the other 25% gets added to your bounty(which makes your bounty now worth £62.50 to who ever knocks you out) and so on. I have seen tournies finish with the winner making more in bounties than actual first place prize money.
i.e

£22 entry £1,000 Quickdraw (£1,160)

31 entries, 12 rebuys, 15 addons
@Arrogant 146000 1 £203 + £248.59 Head Prizes 7

hope this helps bud, good luck in tourny

Thank you for the information Jackdaw it was very helpful to comprehend the format. I googled it and also tried to watch You Tube videos, but it still bamboozled me!
I used to play big comps in casinos in Scotland but never a Bounty Hunter, but now i just mess about in small games online.
Usually i just play 28p games and constantly go 'all in' because i only really want the poker point so i can play for bigger prizes ha.

Cheers and good luck H.

It may be worth you having a look in the compititions section near bottom of the forum page, theres a few comps going to build a bankroll and also win entries into the main comp on sky, i.e, the monday triple take down and the mml league are worth a peek
