Online Poker All-In Or Fold Bounty Tourneys Produce Fine Poker Skills

Yes there's an online tournament which is all-in or fold and yet a bounty tournament. It is certainly a unusual tournament but an intriguing one indeed. For those of you that do not know what an all-in or fold tournament is a tournament where each round preflop you have to go all-in or fold your hand, It is different from the all-in type tournament which requires a player go all in every time which requires little or no strategy at all, but mostly luck. A bounty tournament is when you get a bonus for knocking out a player. In this kind of tournament the prize pool is less because fifty percent is awarded to the the bounties. This tournament has a lot of elements and new strategies.

 

One thing for sure this kind of tournament will cure you of the nasty habit of limping in to pots. It's impossible to limp in during an all-in or fold tournament. It's a great lesson to learn. Limping typically is a bad habit along with a bad poker play. Also, you must play with a good hand. Players are either going all-in with top hands or folding bad ones. This teaches you the discipline of only playing top hands ahead of the flop. A superb skill to have in your poker game.
