BetRivers Poker is introducing Mystery Bounty tournaments, joining a growing list of operators offering the increasingly popular format. The new events went live on Wednesday, Nov. 4, for players in Pennsylvania, Michigan, Delaware and West Virginia.
Tournaments are available across a range of buy-in levels, with the first Mystery Bounty event already running in the BetRivers Poker lobby. Mystery Bounty tournaments have seen a surge in popularity across both live and online poker in recent years, with some events creating life-changing scores for lucky recipients.
The structure on BetRivers Poker will follow the standard Mystery Bounty format. Once the bounty phase begins after the money bubble, eliminating an opponent earns players a shot at a hidden, randomly determined prize rather than a fixed cash amount.
Bounty values will be displayed immediately following each knockout, and the average bounty total will update after every elimination so players can track the stakes in real time throughout the tournament.
BetRivers has also built custom table features for the format, including bounty target icons that appear on players who are all-in, helping participants quickly identify opportunities to collect a bounty.
The launch follows BetRivers Poker’s recent Anniversary Week promotion, which ran through Sunday, Nov. 1. Any player who logged at least one real-money poker hand on the site through Oct. 25, 2026, received two promotional gifts, including SNG and MTT tournament tickets.
