A look at the 888poker Mystery Bounty Festival<\/span><\/h2>\n

With the Mystery Bounty Festival, 888 has again offered players a series for all levels and bankrolls. Events range from micro stakes to high rollers with all events featuring No Limit Hold\u2019em<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Main Event<\/strong> starting flights run from March 1-6, culminating with Day 2 on March 6. The final table is set for March 7 and streamed live on the Twitch<\/a> 888pokerTV<\/strong> channel.<\/span><\/p>\n

Another series highlight is the $109 Mystery Bounty<\/strong> Eight-Max, which runs Feb. 23-27. The mUlti-starting flight tournament features a $150,000 guarantee. The final table also streams on 888pokerTV on Feb. 28.<\/span><\/p>\n

The action gets started with some nice events on the first day of the series. An $11 Mystery Bounty<\/strong> event kicks off the series with a $20,000 guarantee. Players will also find a $55 version with a $50,000 guarantee and a $109 version with a $120,000 guarantee.<\/span><\/p>\n

For those new to a mystery bounty, the format is a bit different than a traditional bounty tournament<\/a>. Instead of cashing in on a set amount when eliminating an opponent, a player receives a random prize. Some of those can be some large payouts.<\/span><\/p>\n

The events have become popular on the live poker felt as well as online. As the name implies, the tournaments add some real mystery to the bounty process.<\/span><\/p>\n
