Yes, I've played in some bounty tourneys. Mostly single table sit-n-go's on Merge sites such as Reefer, Carbon, and Iron Duke. Mixed results... pick up a bounty or two then get felted to pretty much much break even.They are an interesting change of pace.Don't remember playing any for more than $5 buy-in, though. Amusing how the "bounty hunters" play is altered trying to chase those rewards.

That is a very good point Rick! Albeit a tad bit less aggression than freerollers, you still find those "ALL-IN" players who luck into a few pots.

BowerCrush says, if luck really paid, then WSOP finalists would not contain familiar names consistently year after year after year.

500 PC Points to DICKYNORMIS for good thinking! WTG!!

I love bounties & knockout tournaments; I usually play 9, 10, or 18 players tournaments; I do ok with them, but I usually don't play high buy ins. I did play the weekly bounty at Doyle's room, but I think they only pay a bounty if you knock out one of their players. Didn't do well in that one. But they are my current favorite type of tourney, for about the last 6 months or so.
