Today I'll be playing in a $150,000 Mystery Bounty. I won my way in through a series of tournaments. The end-game has multiple paths that lead to it. I played in a few different paths and managed to not only make it to the final but I am left with a spare $33 ticket for phase one. I'm not sure if the extra ticket will be converted to something else of $33 value or simply expire. I guess I will find out upon tournament completion when I contact the site reps. Phase two is the end-game. You have to place top 15% in phase one to get to phase 2 (the final). Currently I'm sitting in 15th place out of 499 players. There will likely be a surge of players qualifying today. I suspect 750+ with some of them garnering stacks larger than mine which currently sits at over 1.6 million. The chip leader has 2.4* million. How this tournament works is everyone who makes it to phase two has a mystery bounty on their head. The highest being worth $10,000 USD. A prize that largely outperforms final table finishes that are not first place. Most bounty's will be of min value but there are others in the thousand + range. This is only my second money tournament since returning to poker. The first was playing in the Sunday Million a couple weeks back (no luck in that one but there is always a next one).

As I mentioned in some of my previous posts I intend on creating some communities here on hive and the first will go live this month. Which will be a generic community and act as a testing ground to see if there is any interest in poker here on Hive. I been putting my research cap on and my brainstorming cap as well to see if I can up with something of interest. For now I'll putt along with trying to build a Bankroll from 0 deposits. I did check some of my old(ish) parnterships I had previously within the pokerworld but unfortunately allot of them have moved on or the sites I partnered with moved/ sold multiple times since my last contact with site owners/reps. There is still a couple of my old partners running under the same brand and ownership as they did some years back. I'm not sure if I'll start with them or something completely new. Either way Rentmoney is going to try and bring freeroll poker to Hive with the aim to put Fiat cash in your pocket. I'm no stranger to such things. I ran/ was admin and moderator at various poker forums in the past. Mingled with some poker site owners and been affiliated with many poker sites. I hosted hundreds of freeroll poker tournaments over the course of 3 years or more and I'm looking to do that again.

Above in our second screenshot you can see the current top 20 chip leaders. I am currently rank 16th with 1,668,664 chips. Blinds will start at 5000/10,000. This means I have 160 Big Blinds. Normally that would be allot and in this case its still a decent amount however we are playing a Turbo Tournament. What is a turbo tournament? It's a poker tournament where the blind level's increase faster than the standard 10 minute blind levels. This specific tournament blind levels increase every six minutes. If you take another look at that top 20 list you will notice there is a special icon next to a specific players name. The reason for that is that he is a professional poker player. Its likely there is more pros registered or will be registered before the tournament starts. Lets see how RentMoney stacks up against the field. Hopefully I get placed at a table where I'm the table chip leader so I can put some pressure on the short stacks and bounty hunt. Bounties are collected for each player eliminated. There is still some hours before the tournament starts but I'll update my success or lack there of in my next blog post. If content like this interest you don't forget to hit that follow button.
