GET RID OF BOUNTY HUNTER TOURNYS?

I prefer the main 9pm tourny to be a normal poker tournament and not in Bounty hunter format.

What is your preference?

    The point of them is to keep the fish happy, a couple of times a week they actually have a chance of getting some kind of return on their buy in.

    They are excellent for the site in general

    Please get rid of them as a monthly Primo tournament as they're just an embarrasment.

    I DONT LIKE THEM BUT THEY ARE POPULAR AND THEY GET A LOT OF ENTRYS TO THEIR SATTELITTES SO I DONT THINK THEY WILL BE GOING AWAY WHILE THEY ARE BEING SUPPORTED BY HIGH ENTRY NUMBERS

    If you don't like them, don't play them.
    They add variety and if I wasn't broke I would give them a whirl.

    Hi,
    Bounty Hunters are good for the reason you can still profit if you finish 100th, for example, if you take enough bounties.
    If you finish 100th in the normal open, for example, you get nothing.
    Bounties are like a prize for taking out another player; you get rewarded for knocking someone out. I like that.

    i dont really like the bounty hunters,so i only play them when they are the 9pm game,i dont think they should get rid of them altogether just move them from the 9pm slot..
    on the plus side i won the 15k bounty,and they stop you(the swiss) from winning the 9pm so often lol

    cheers dave

    Interesting. Thanks for all your thoughts and votes.

    I don't mind them when the buy in is more than £10 as otherwise first prize is only £600. £17 BH's and above at least have a first prize of more than a £1000.

    got to be honest , have nt had much success in BH tourneys but, a lot of people like them,so i think they should stay from a community view.....


    a lot of people enjoy taking my bounty lol....

    I DONT LIKE THE BOUNTY HUNTERS MUCH EITHER WOULDNT GET RID OF ALTOGETHER THOUGH AS ALOT OF PLAYERS LIKE THEM JUST WOULD RATHER A £30 OR£40 FREEZOUT AT 9 INSTEAD FOR THE PURER POKER ALSO A TELE TOUNIE STARTING AT 8 WITH 12 MIN BLINDS WOULD BE BETTER JUST PICK THE ACTION UP ON THE SHOW AT 9

    Yes get rid of them, they may be good for the site, but if there were none there, these ppl wouldnt refuse to play poker, they would play conventional tourneys.

    While your at it, get rid of DYM`s, they are a joke.
