What are Progressive Knockout tournaments?
Progressive Knockout tournaments, or Progressive KOs, are action-packed tourneys where you can win hundreds or even thousands of dollars at any moment! For every player you eliminate you’ll win a cash prize plus your own bounty will increase, leading to a frantic finish where every hand can mean mega bucks.
Progressive KOs are already running on desktop and we’ll be making them available on mobile soon, so watch this space!
Check out the table below for the schedule from Monday – Saturday, including the progressive bounty you’ll earn for each successful elimination:

In a regular knockout tournament, players have a fixed bounty on their head. Whoever knocks them out receives the cash bounty.
Progressive KOs work a little differently. Instead of receiving the full bounty for knocking a player out, you receive some of the bounty in cash and the rest is added to your own bounty. For example, assume the bounty is split 50/50 between a cash reward and being added to a progressive bounty. If two players each with a bounty of $10 butt heads and one is eliminated, the winning player will receive $5 cash and have $5 added to their own bounty to make $15.
As the tournament progresses and the eliminations begin to stack up, bounties can quickly escalate to jaw-dropping figures.
