Just in a BH tourney now. 3 players all in
Player A has mopre chips than player B has more chips than player C.
Players A & B have the same winning hand, player C is eliminated. Player A got all the bounty. Should it not have been split, as players A & B BOTH had player C covered? Only a few pence in this case, but if this happened in the £22 BH I would be peeved.
Is this how it works or is this a bug?

I've never seen the official rules, but from my observations it seems the biggest stack always gets the bounty and bounties are never shared. You should remember this and consider your stack size when deciding whether or not to enter a multi-way pot involving an all-in shortstack. Even if you win the pot a bigger stack than yours at showdown will take the bounty.
A question springs to mind though;
What whould happen if player A and Player B had identical stack sizes and split a pot that eliminated player C?
could be wrong , but in that instance wouldnt the player first calling the allin , get the bounty ?
