I love both, when my bankroll is short then I dont play bounty as you can get in a situation where you might lose your buy-in early however I love bounty too coz if you are lucky you can bust a couple and boom you have your buy-in back and play like a HERO, regular are almsot all skill and you will have enough time to think and make right descisions without being distracted with a potential bounty.

if the tournament is expensive, bounty is better for me, at least you can knock out two people there and stay with your own, and knockouts are an additional incentive, instead of boring tournaments

I like playing both formats. In each of them you have to adopt a different strategy. The advantage of bounty tournaments is that you can earn money early in the game. This results in a lower variance and the bankroll requirements are lower than in regular tournaments.

I like regular , cause I have been playing them all the time . But I would like to try more the bounty tourneys . I have to study them , the players are very aggro , many call with the right odds more hands than the normal games .

Hi! In general, I like bounty tournaments more, but sometimes I fall into the trap when I want to knock out the opponent whom I "cover" and have to call with a weaker hand, and sometimes I lose)

Regular ones, no question. + the nowadays very rare 9max version, instead of 6-7-8max

Personally prefer to play PKOs but it is all just preference in all honesty

I really enjoy trying all kinds of poker. I typically play regular more often but when Im in the mood a bounty can be lots of fun.

I prefer tournaments with knockout rewards, the ability to win money just by knocking out other players seems like a great opportunity to recoup the cost of entry

I like regular non-bounty tournaments better because for example at 888 in mystery bounties they pay for knockouts after level 17 and recently I knocked out 7 people before level 17 and then none after. And in the end, of course, I got into the prizes, but they were only a little more than the buy-in for the tournament.

Bounty tournaments are popular now, and I like to play them myself, there is a possibility that you will be able to at least buy-in the tournament before reaching the prizes. Well, if you still get into the prizes, it's so great. I agree that the prize money is slightly lower than in regular tournaments, but this does not interfere in principle.

Hello friends!
Due to the growing popularity of bounty tournaments, I wanted to know which tournaments are more popular among CardsChat community members?

I actually sometimes find it interesting to play tournaments with knockout rewards. But half of the prize pool there always goes to bounties, so I prefer regular tournaments)
I also prefer regular tournaments. In tournaments with knockouts, players often play with junk and it pisses me off a little. In regular tournaments, the game is more predictable and it's better for me.

Needless to say that bounty tournaments give more opportunities to earn some cash, but regulars seem better as there are much fewer of those who just push to knock by luck and people are more moderate.

Regular tournaments are a classic where players think about getting into the ITM.
In bounty tournaments, players go crazy in the early stages of the tournament. I don't really like to play bounty.

I only play bounty tournaments, in them you can knock out a very big knock from one bounty, and there can be a lot of them!!!

I do much better with the regulars, but I love the KO's.
