Hey Friends!

I've been wanting to add some more spice to my stream & there's a segment I used to run which a lot of my viewers really enjoyed.
After putting in some work to get fresh graphics to keep things crisp, I've decided to bring back the segment and see how it goes.

The Blitz Bounty Royale

What it is: A timed segment where for a limited time players can earn a bounty if they stack me in the blitz tables

Rules: I start with a full buyin but am not allowed to rebuy, greatly increasing the chances that the bounty will be won

Rewards: Last week I test it with a $11 tourney ticket bounty (pretty good value for 10 NL tables)

But, I said if we can get 50 players in the pool at once I will double the prize to a $22 ticket, and increase it further if we reach 100 players.

First test run we did on friday had 35 players, do i think the odds of unlocking bigger prizes is pretty high

When: Currently the segment runs Monday & Friday at 5:30pm ET and runs for 30-60 mins (but I can extend the time if there's interest)

Where: On my twitch channel @Gripsed

What do you guys think of this idea/format?

Any ideas for how it could be further improved?

Sounds pretty fun. I am always for things, that can make the game more interesting. Ideally I would hope, that the 10NL table could get a revival and start running regularly again :)

Maybe you could add another entry, if the pool exceeds 50 players, and then there would be a bounty for knocking out each of the Evans :)

Great idea fundiver

I tested it last night and joined the maximum number of tables, so i had 5 running

That gave everyone a much higher chance of having a live bounty in play :)

We peaked at around 25 players, and I somehow managed to survive all 45 minutes without getting stacked

I don't know that I'll be so lucky next time though!

Thanks to everyone who showed up last week, we had 65 players in the pool!

I've decided I'm just going to set the started bounty at $22 instead of $11 (and increase it to $33 if 100 people are in)

I'm also definitely gonna keep doing 5 tables right from the start so the bounty is constantly in play.
And finally I'm gonna extend the segment to 90 mins today so there' smore time to build the pool up!

Here are the highlights from last week

Everyone is welcome to join as long as it's within your bankroll!!!

I'll need to deposit as I took my remaining roll off of ACR last summer. I've been wanting to for awhile so this will help to motivate me.
