Bounty????

[Catbeard]

Hey all was wanting some ideas on how you incorporate bounty’s once in awhile in your home tourneys

 

[tabletalker7]

Need more info buddy - how many players and what stakes are your players comfortable with?

 

[Catbeard]

Either a single or double table Usually $25 to $50 tourney buyin if we play cash it’s usually 25/50 or 50/1

 

[MikesDad]

For a $25 buy-in I'd go with a $5 bounty
For $50, go for $10 bounty
It's good when the bounty is a somewhat significant percentage of the buy-in so players that win a bounty or
two get a reasonable amount of their buy-in back

Bounties of 20-25% the buy-in seem to be best.

Bounty seems like a fun way to play. We are going to start playing bounty for home games as well

Bounty tournaments are great for people like me - I rarely finish in the cash but I drag a few poor souls down to hell with me before I go

We play with a bounty and it’s great for spreading a little love around for the non winners. It’s amazing that you can lose money but if you take home a bounty you are in the hole and still feel good.
