Steve O’Dwyer won the very first Cuatro Bounty Last night EPT Barcelona held their very first Cuatro Bounty, a fascinating hybrid of a routine bounty and a secret

bounty. In basic KO competitions (which are not that basic any longer) you normally win 25% of a buy-in. This makes it enjoyable at the start however towards the bubble phase the bounties end up being rather unimportant relative to the primary reward swimming pool.

In the Cuatro Bounty, each removal deserves 100% of a buy-in, however the bounty phase does not begin till 25% of the field stays.

This is extremely comparable to a format Dusk Till Dawn has actually just recently experimented with, where the bounties enter into have fun with 3 tables left. At 3 tables the bounty deserves a buy-in, at 2 it deserves 1.5 buy-ins and at the last table, each removal deserves 3 buy-ins.

I like the format. Like a secret bounty, the bounties just begin when the competition is deep, which suggests the typical bounty deserves a lot more. Unlike a secret bounty, there is no variation with the bounty worth. There is likewise less enjoyment surrounding the possible to win a mega bounty, however I believe a bounty significance you’ve recovered cost on the competition is an enjoyable proposal too.

It appears like the format was popular last night and it saw Steve O’Dwyer take it down for EUR163,720 and EUR48,000 in bounties.
