Poker Knockout Tournament
by admin
As the world's most popular card game, it's no surprise that there is more than one way to play poker. To enhance the gameplay experience for our players, we've introduced some of the most popular variants of everyone's favourite game to our tournaments and series.
Knockout
Knockout tournaments (also known as Bounty tournaments) pay a cash prize for every player you knock out of the tournament. This cash prize is the 'bounty' on the player and is separate from the tournament's prize pool. This means that players with many knockouts can still take home some money, even if they do not make it to a winning position in the tournament. The last player of the tournament - i.e. the winner - will have his bounty credited to him as winnings.

- For instance, in a knockout tournament featuring a $1,000 buy-in + $1,000 bounty, where starting stack is 5,000 in chips, eliminating a player is roughly equal to adding 5,000 to your stack.
- How Knockout Poker works. Knockout Poker tournaments are special MTT and Sit & Go tournaments where the prize money is split, with a part going to the overall prize pool, and the other part distributed among players for each opponent they knock out. Unlike traditional MTTs and Sit & Go’s, you don’t need to finish in the money to earn a cash.
Progressive Knockout
The bigger the catch, the better the prize! While regular Knockout pays a player the same fixed amount for each knockout, Progressive Knockout places a different price on each player's head. In this variant, you win 50% of the bounty each time you knockout a player, and the rest gets added to your own bounty. As the tournament progresses, players with many knockouts will subsequently have higher bounties, and will be worth more to knock out! The last player of the tournament - i.e. the winner - will have his bounty credited to him as winnings.
Win the Button
In a regular poker game, the dealer button is moved around the table in a clockwise manner. However, in this format, the button will be passed to whoever wins the round. Effectively, this gives them the advantage of acting last in the game. Win the Button is an action-packed variant that rewards players that actively go for the win.

Knockout tournaments are the same as standard Multi-table tournaments, with one exception: a part of the prize pool is set aside to provide players who knock out other players with a bonus. In that way, knockout tournaments are basically the same as bounty tournaments.
