A knockout bounty of $1.5 million? In Ocean KO tournaments on GGPoker, the hunt for bounties is now even more exciting.
GGPoker’s newest tournament format combines Progressive Knock‑Outs (PKO) with the random multiplier known from Spin & Gold tournaments. There is also a tier system. But one thing at a time.
In regular PKO tournaments, a player’s bounty grows when they eliminate an opponent. The interesting twist with Ocean KO events is that this bounty is also combined with a multiplier.
The multiplier reaches up to 400 across the ten regular tier levels. On top of that, there are four Legendary tier levels. The highest level is ‘Legendary Shark’, where the multiplier is between 0.8 and 1.5. Here are the multipliers in a $10 Ocean KO:
| Tier | Name | Starting Bounty | Multiplier | Max KO Reward |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Egg | $5 (Starting) | x0.4 to x400 | $2,000 |
| 2 | Fry | $6 | x0.4 to x400 | $2,400 |
| 3 | Fish | $7 | x0.4 to x400 | $2,800 |
| 4 | Shrimp | $10 | x0.4 to x400 | $4,000 |
| 5 | Crab | $15 | x0.4 to x400 | $6,000 |
| 6 | Turtle | $25 | x0.4 to x400 | $10,000 |
| 7 | Octopus | $50 | x0.4 to x400 | $20,000 |
| 8 | Dolphin | $100 | x0.4 to x400 | $40,000 |
| 9 | Whale | $200 | x0.4 to x400 | $80,000 |
| 10 | Shark | $500 | x0.4 to x400 | $200,000 |
| 11 | Legendary Octopus | $10,000 | x0.5 to x50 | $500,000 |
| 12 | Legendary Dolphin | $50,000 | x0.6 to x10 | $500,000 |
| 13 | Legendary Whale | $250,000 | x0.65 to x2.5 | $625,000 |
| 14 | Legendary Shark | $1,000,000 | x0.8 to x1.5 | $1,500,000+ |
