When NOT to Gamble for a Bounty in PKOs

There is very little written about progressive knockout (PKO) strategy, until now, but most people correctly get the sense that they should widen their range to win bounties. This is especially true when the bounty is big and in some cases represents a bigger prize than what the first mincash is. I have just published a new book on progressive knockout tournaments and, spoiler alert, there are a lot of situations where it is correct to get your money in the middle of the table with 100% of your hands. There are times in PKOs where it is correct to not look at your hand and call.
