was wondering how you all prefer to approach them(give examples of different stages)
I usually start out tight and just loosen up as the blinds go up till im close to the money

yes i play tight until blinds go up - i find less donks at higher blinds
I start out tight , fight for the short stacks bounties , and generally try to stay away from the players who know we're going for bountys so play mega tight.
Don't chase after short stack bounty because you get a bunch of idiot trying to get in on it, giving up there tournament life trying to get it.
i usually play LAG in the beginning when the blinds are low shoot for bounties with decent connecting hand ect.....
I does usually chase for short stacks becuase it's fun hehe, I would start off aggressive becuase it will become easier for you later
I play very lagy at the beginning trying to get a few hands some bounties and build a stack
I play bounty tourneys just like i do any other tourney,maybe a little more aggressive for a bounty or two, but in general the same as any other tourney!
I know what you mean here... lolQuote:

mtt can be be wild as hell at times !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i'm playing them tight at the beggining.as the blinds grow up i'm starting to be more agressive
just got top 3 in 3 dollar bounty for 2nd time this week hopefully I can keep it going....
I usually play pretty tight until later in the tourney as well.
I suck at Bounty T's ,,,then again I just play way to tight...
stick to the SnG's until u get used to the format but it is a donkfest throughout because everyones chasin the bountys
me too - and i wait until two tables left to get agressiveQuote:

start out real tight but aggressive with the hands that i do play....still pretty tight in the middle stages and then when it gets late I loosen up and play more hands when im getting like 5 or 6 to 1 on my money
play bountys like any other tourney.. play them tight dont call just to get bountys u will be on rail fast if u play well u will get bountys
yea can understand that.....just sucks when you have aces and like 5-6 other people call and a bigger stack rails you
yes i play tigh
yea been there myself they do the same in even bounty SnG's
I see a lot of people going after bounties no matter what.
i`m going for all in in the beggining
i never play these they influence the play too much. ppl call and hit with garbage just to try and get your bounty.
I does usually chase for short stacks
I've never played bounty tourney yet but it looks like you guys all have fun with them mybee ill give it couple tries.
Late stages you can really be loose aggressive and pick on idiots
If your goal is to win the bounty tournament, which I assume it is, don't get greedy with the concept that knocking out a short stack will cover your initial buyin. The incentive isnt worth it in the long run
i pretty much sit out the first few hands and watch how the other players do
I like the fact that there is a bounty on every player in the tourney.
Who else runs really bad in bounty MTTs? especially the $2 bounty donk fests?
