The GGPoker Network has changed without prior announcement the fee collection system in the Bounty Jackpot feature which they recently implemented in PKO tournaments.

If earlier the jackpot pool was accumulated by deducting a set amount of rake each time a player received a bounty, now the commission is charged only when entering a tournament and isn’t deducted each time a player receives a bounty.
In addition to changes to the rake fee structure, GGPoker has also changed the probability of dropping the prizes, making it much harder to win Bounty Jackpot prizes, which has also resulted in lower jackpot hit rates and, as a result, flatter variance.

Recall that the Bounty Jackpot is essentially a typical RKO tournament in which part of the buy-in goes to the bounty for each player knocked out, and the other half goes to the total prize pool. The point is, every time a player knocks out their opponent, they have a chance to win an additional jackpot reward that can reach up to $1 million.
