There’s a new edition of Bounty Builder Series coming this month. So what makes this type of online series worth reading about?

Well there are a few things.

For one, you don’t have to reach the money to finish with a profit. That’s got to save everyone a lot of time and angst.

What else?

You can make your buy-in back by knocking out a handful of opponents. Which sounds a lot easier than a long slog to the final table.

And another thing…

You can walk away with a bumper payout, with cash prizes on top of your bounties. None of that bubble stress then.

And that comes with all the usual things you’d expect. Like, buy-ins to match any sized bankroll, and a variety of games to keep things interesting.

It all starts later this month, with the two week series kicking off on Sunday 11 October.

And the prizes across the two week schedule will add up to a $30 million guarantee.

Dates: October 11-25
Series GTD: $30M
Main Event(s): October 25
Main Event(s): $55/$1M GTD and $530/$2.5M GTD

Remember: All events are Progressive Knockout (PKO)

So how does this all work?

All the events in Bounty Builder Series are Progressive Knockouts (PKO).

These work a little differently to regular Multi-table tournaments, which is what makes them interesting.

Mainly because if you knock out the right players you could be winning big, regardless of how you get on in the tournament.

Here’s how it works (short version):

Anytime you eliminate a player, you pocket half of their bounty value, with the other half added to your own bounty value.

And here’s the slightly longer example…

So using the short explanation, if a player has a $10 bounty, the player who knocks them out (you, for instance) will win $5. The other $5 would be added to the victor’s (your) bounty.

Let’s take a wildly hypothetical example using Spraggy.

So hypothetically… Spraggy KOs Fintan Hand, picking up his bounty which at that stage of the tournament was worth $10.

Spraggy would win $5 and his own bounty would increase by $5.

Now, looking ahead you can see how this might get interesting.

As the tournament progresses, the bounties on certain players – the players wreaking havoc on everyone else –start to get very big.

So big it’s like they have a massive bullseye stuck on them.

Knock them out and whatever else happens you’re in for a sizeable payday.

Of course, they might have picked you off along the way, but let’s park that for now.

That’s how to play, and you know when. But how does it all end?

Well, with a lot of KOs and not one but TWO Main Events on Sunday 25 October.

The first: $55 buy-in and $1 million guaranteed.

The second: $530 buy-in $2.5 million guarantee.

And as always, there are plenty of ways to avoid paying the full buy-in, with satellites in the build-up and during the series to all Bounty Builder events.

Talking of which, the full schedule to the series is listed below. Let us know what you think in the comments at the bottom of this page.
