Hey Barry! Is it a good strategy to risk your tourney life for a relatively small bounty at the late stage of the tournament? For example: 50$ buy in with an avg. stack at 12 players left. Top prize is around 5K$ and the possibble bounty is around 400$.
Hey Barry, PKO is wrong way play AA all-in after 2 reise by 2BB? Position MP or CO

No. It's generally a good strategy to take those risks early because the bounty is worth more relatively and it also puts you in a good position to win more bounties.
As ICM becomes a factor, it stabilises your ranges closer to what they normally would be. We refer to it as an ICM Dial, the bounty pulls you in one direction, ICM the other, and when there are big pay jumps ICM usually wins.
We actually have an article coming on this site in a few days which explains exactly this.

Not sure what you are asking but it sounds like can we make a big overbet with AA against an opening raise. TBH you can do some crazy things with 30BB+ stacks like this and you will get called wide enough to justify it. I'd bet smaller generally though
How many pages does the book have? How long does it take to read it all to use? Use for 6max or 9max ?

200 pages, pretty quick read and we have examples from both 6 and 9 max

HelloWhat software do you use to analyze tough spots?
Holdem Resources Calculator was the main one we used. ICMIZER is also quite good. Both have recently updated to include bounty details. Free trials for both here: https://www.pokerstrategy.com/poker-software-tools/

Poker related question - how many more WSOP do you think that Phil Hellmuth will win?

I think he can get to 20 total. We actually make an analogy in the new book to Hellmuth and PKOs. In a PKO nobody folds so you win by value betting wider, which is how he wins. Everybody overplays their hands against him because they want to bust him, which is a massive advantage for Phil.

What rooms you prefer to play PKO formats ?
At the moment probably Stars, simply because they have a lot of PKO MTTSNGs and I am too busy to play longer games (and late regging PKOs is a bad idea).
Having said that, recently joined GG and I love it. That might be my new favourite room overall.

Hey Barry, what is your favorite activity besides poker?
Yep my joy in life is my dog Charlie (and other people's dogs). He is 11 years old and has some health problems at the moment but he is going to have an operation this month which hopefully might give him a good extra year or two.
I work from home and having a dog for company is +EV, they make you smile every day
