Pokerdom continues to surprise players, and every year we bring more fun and excitement to the poker tables. We are introducing the Bounty Jackpot, which will be available in almost all tournaments (except Chinese poker 3-max format, satellites, time-limited tournaments, and freerolls).
Every player who knocks out an opponent from the table will have a chance to win a share of the jackpot. The tournament doesn't have to be in knockout format — any tournament will work, except for the abovementioned exceptions. The starting prize pool for the jackpot is 1,000,000 rubles, and it will be replenished through a commission from buy-ins according to the following proportions:
- Buy-in from 50 to 5,000 rubles — commission is 2%;
- Buy-in over 5,000 rubles — fixed commission of 100 rubles.
Additionally, we are reducing the base commission in all tournaments, ranging from 4.9% to 8%.
The jackpot implementation and fee reduction will be phased in over several weeks. In the meantime, you can explore the odds and payout amounts in more detail.
When the Bounty Jackpot hits, you can win from 0.25% to 50% of its total size. The chance of receiving a part of the jackpot is 2%. Below is a table of the odds of winning a portion of the jackpot:

How the Bounty Jackpot amount is calculated: first, the chance of winning a part of the jackpot is randomly determined (Table 1), and then the coefficient is applied (Table 2).
Example 1: When knocking out an opponent in a tournament with a 5,000 ruble buy-in, you win a 1.25% share of the total jackpot prize pool. After applying the coefficient, the payout will be 1.25% of the total jackpot prize pool. If the jackpot is 1,000,000 rubles, the user will receive 12,500 rubles.
Example 2: When knocking out an opponent in a tournament with a 1,000 ruble buy-in, you win 50% of the total jackpot prize pool. After applying the coefficient, the payout will be 10% of the total jackpot prize pool. If the jackpot is 1,000,000 rubles, the payout will be 100,000 rubles.
The current Bounty Jackpot amount is available in the game lobby.
