Absolute Poker Now Has Assasin bounty Tournaments

Bounty tournaments are growing very popular for online players as you don't need a good finish in a tournament to score a little cash.

Absolute Poker is now launching new bounty tournaments for online poker player.  With this game every player gets a bounty on their head and for every player that you knock out you will get that bounty.

David Clainer. Senior Vice President for Absolute Poker said, “This is online poker action to die for.  Just as we did with the introduction of Bad Beat Jackpot, we’re making it easier for players to profit big from Texas Hold'em without necessarily finishing in the money.”

The bounty tournaments at Absolute Poker have named the Assassin Bounty tournaments and they are very similar to their regular tournaments but they have an additional buyin that gets attached to every players head and will be released only to the player that knocks them out.

The biggest bounty tournament on the schedule is the $200+$9 Texas Hold'em tournament that runs every Saturday at 20:30 ET that also has a guaranteed World Series of Poker Seat also on the line.  The $209 buyin is divided up, $100 dollars goes into the prize pool, $9 dollars goes to the house and the remaining $1000 is the bounty.
