Bounty

word type: poker slang

  1. A dollar amount awarded to a player when busting out a designated player.

How it Works

Perhaps the most famous bounty-related tournament is the Bay 101 Shooting Stars tournament.

In that event, 50 players are designated as "bounties" and busting one of them out of the event results in a $5K award. This money comes out of the larger prizepool.
