Default Re: FTP\'s New \"Knockout Bounty\" MTTs

[ QUOTE ]

anyway how should u adjust to this?

[/ QUOTE ]

1. Don't donk off all your chips trying too hard to knock people out.

2. However, when facing an allin from a shorter stack, understand how the bounty affects your pot odds. In a 4+1+0.5 tournament with 1500 starting stacks, a bounty is worth about 300 chips (because the bounty pool is 1/5 of the total prize pool). So for example if blinds are 10/20, you're in the BB, it folds around to SB who goes allin for 150 chips, you should obv be calling with 32o.

3. Expect to get called more when going all in against a bigger stack. Expect the field to contain bad players who will ignore (1).

4. The deeper you get in the tournament, the less relevant the bounties become.

5. Don't donk off all your chips trying too hard to knock people out.
