The first big strategic difference between the two is that bounties in PKOs are known, whereas they are unknown in Mystery Bounties. Knowns vs unknowns PKO bounties have a compounding effect It is perhaps because PKOs already offer big money bounties that Mystery Bounty has not been tried much online. The Mystery Bounty was a simplified way to take the thrill of big money bounties to live poker. This is because logistically a PKO is very complex and hard to replicate in live poker. Mystery Bounty tournaments are currently a mostly live poker format, PKOs are almost exclusively online. Today I am going to share why they actually differ considerably. We found through extensive solver work that this wasn't the case. The Mystery Bounty book came about because so many people asked us about them, many of whom assumed a PKO strategy was good enough to use.

We already have one bounty-themed book released - PKO Poker Strategy. Mystery Bounty is not a big online formatĭara O'Kearney and I are close to releasing our next book, which will be about Mystery Bounty tournaments.
