    The strategy of the 2 formats, bounty hunters and freezeouts are very different. 

    You cant really compare the 2, its like asking why someone would prefer a dym over a "normal" sit and go. 

    Different pay outs, and different skillsets required to be successful. 

    Id imagine the bounty fields are considerably softer than non bounty fields due to players either not adjusting, or adjusting poorly. 

    And soft fields attract more players, naturally.

    . The winner actually got around 6k including head prizes, so still a massive loss.

    I can see how stupid the quote looks taken out of context. I was attempting to illustrate the huge difference in the prizepool between the two types, when it comes to a fairly big tournament.

    In Response to Re: Are Bounty Hunters an illusion? : Pedant alert - the last placed player cannot get any money back; to do that you need to have eliminated someone so you can't possibly be the last finisher. Second last, yes theoretically.
