Deliver knockouts like a Bounty Beast

In collaboration with bencb, w3cray has put together a unique strategy package for knockout and bounty tournaments. The focus of the course is exclusively on these types of tournaments which are amongst the most popular these days.
Still, most players don't tend to realise that bounty tournaments are quite a bit more complex than their standard brethren, often times only guessing the right approach to the very specific structure instead of really knowing what to do.
With the help of review videos, live plays as well as hand analyses, bencb and w3cray are going to help you to get to the gist of the special tournament format. The road to success is as simple as always: Understanding the theoretical concepts and learning to apply them right at the tables.
