What is a PKO Bounty Tournament?

• PKO (Progressive Knockout) tournaments are fun, unique events where a dynamic bounty is placed on each player
• As you knock out other players, you are paid 50% of their bounty and the other 50% is added to your total bounty
• Unlike regular knockout tournaments the value of the bounties can grow
• If you are the victor in a PKO Tournament you win in multiple ways:
  • Win the amount in the general prize pool for 1st place
  • Win the bounties you earned over the course of the event
  • Keep the full amount of the bounty that is on your head

Should I play a PKO Tournament differently?

Yes, the strategy for playing PKOs is very different from regular bounty tournament strategy.

Remembers these tips when playing in a PKO Tournament:

• Because bounty values change based on each player's number of knockouts, some players are worth much more than others to knock out
• Players are incentivized to widen their ranges and go after opponents when they have a high bounty value
• Starting PKO Tournaments on time and avoiding late registration is critical to maximize your chances of winning the most bounties
• It's often profitable to call with any 2 cards in PKO Tournaments when your opponent's bounty value is high
• This style of tournament has become extremely popular over the last year because it encourages so much action!
