The new weekly Team Titan Bounty tournaments have a buy-in of six dollars and will award players that knock out any one of the seven Team Titan members with a $100 cash prize.
Team Titan also includes Yann Brosolo, Florian Desgouttes and Joel Benzinou with the Antigua-licensed online poker site stating that it has also added an additional $500 to each bounty tournament as a way of increasing the excitement.
