What are Mystery Bounty tournaments?

Mystery Bounty tournaments are knockout tournaments with a unique twist! They include hidden bounty prizes that are revealed during the later stages of the tournament.

How do Mystery Bounty tournaments work?

These tournaments have two stages.

  • Initial stage: works like a regular tournament with no bounties awarded.
  • Final stage: begins after the money bubble bursts and bounties become active.

What happens in the 'Final Stage'?

  • Each player carries a random mystery bounty value.
  • Eliminating a player awards a virtual envelope.
  • The envelope reveals the cash prize for the winner.

How is the prize pool divided?

The total prize pool is split into two parts.

  • Half goes to the regular tournament prize pool.
  • Half is reserved for mystery bounties. 

How do bounties work?

Can I win multiple bounties?

Yes. You can win more than one bounty.

You can even collect multiple bounties in a single hand, by eliminating multiple players.

What happens in a chopped pot?

If a hand is chopped, the mystery bounty is split equally between the winning players.

How can I track remaining bounties?

Players can track the remaining Mystery Bounty prizes in the 'Tournament Info' widget.
