GGPoker's new jackpot PKO Ocean KO format has turned the PLO Series into a full-blown Bountymania.
When you combine action-heavy PLO4 and PLO5 with jackpot PKO mechanics, players tend to go a bit crazy. We've seen this multiple times now, with GGPoker's new Ocean KO format letting random multipliers fly and players firing more shots than you can fit in a six-shooter revolver.
The same pattern continued between November 7 and 9 in the PLO Series Ocean KO tournaments, when the so-called Omaha nut hunters were on the prowl for epic jackpot bounties.
L Bogachkin proved the point in the $1,000 Monday Ocean KO [7-Max], collecting $26,108.50 in bounties on top of his $8,990.57 finishing prize. His total haul reached $35,099.07, while runner-up Freenergy earned almost the same prize for finishing second but collected just $425 in bounties.
And Bogachkin wasn't the only player finding gold outside the winner's circle. OmgItsAA- picked up $9,000 in bounties despite finishing 11th in the same tournament.
Check out the latest PLO Ocean KO results below. We've included up to 20 finishers to show just how much the bounty hauls can fluctuate.
Here are some of the biggest bounty collections from the November 7-9 PLO Series events, including a few players who finished well outside the top spots.
