Turbo means that the blinds will go up faster than usual. Most turbo tournaments in casino’s have blinds that last 20 minutes, where as the non turbo tournaments the blinds will last 45 minutes to an hours.
And the bounty means that you get money for every person that you knock out. Depending on how much the buy in is for the tournament you will win money for every person you knock out. Example, if the tournament is a 125 dollar buy in, normally 100 will go to the prize pool and 25 to the bounty. So for every person you knock out you will win 25 dollars.

“Turbo means that the blinds will go up faster than usual”
That is what I though but apprently that isnt alway the case in casinos.
Turbo means that each player has a maximum of 20 seconds to act or else there hand is folded.
However when you are playing online Turbo means the blinds go up faster than usual.
Bounty means that a cash prize is award for every player you knock out and that prize gets taken out of the prize pool
