With regard to the buy in fee,why do sky rake in more from a bounty hunter as per a normal tourney?

    This has been debated before, and the answer from skypoker always seems to be along the lines of that their fees are calculated using their current business model, this also applies to charging an indifensible rake on all re -buys and add -ons. I presume this equates to ''how much rake do we think we can charge, like all companies do''

    Most popular you say? I must admit i think most poker players cant relate to them so i would be suprised if they were most pop on mtt,The b/h main event in the week attracts about 400 and the 2.20 one gets near that to but i think the bigger main events such as primo etc get the same runners and also there is far less b/h torns in the lobby compared to normal nlh.

    Bounty hunters are the most popular, Tikay will tell you that, just by number of runners they do win
