The conversion of bounty value to chips is different to a 50% PKO. I just find that looking at the payout ladder for the bounty builders, the paybumps are so minimal, that I wouldn't be playing the game to move up, but rather to build and use my stack to eliminate players around me where as in the regular PKO games, you would put emphasis into both laddering up as well as eliminating players.Īny other adjusments that you guys would make for the bounty builder games?Īll Bounty Builders are 75% PKO on Saturdays.
This takes much more effort since stack sizes can change from hand to hand.Īlso, would you tend to preserve your stack and be more risk averse if there is a short stack at your table with a large bounty? It would suck to get eliminated by a bigger stack, while waiting for your chance to bust the short stack with a big bounty. It seems like maybe in these games, you would try to get stacks all in preflop more often as well, so that the bounty is on the line if you were to win.Īlso, the emphasis on bounties means you constantly have to assess who has a short stack at your table, and what their bounty amount is. I find it hard to go out of your way to target a stack only for the bounty with a wide range, until their stack gets down to say 10BBs or less. What adjustments would you make between the two? It seems like when bounties make up such a big part of your pay in bounty builders, you would focus more on targeting and getting into hands with players that have shorter stacks. That puts such an emphasis on the bounties and eliminating players, and the paybumps are very negligable, even when you get all the way to final table they aren't that big and are smaller than alot of the bounties. The big difference in the bounty builders is that the bounty prize pool makes up 75% of the prize pool.
In the progressive KO games, the prize pool is split equally between the tournament place payouts and the bounty prize pool. I've been playing these bounty and knock-out MTTs for a few months now, but I only recently realized how different the payout structure is between the two.
