($4.97 / $0.75) × 29% × 20,000.00This is the discount in big blinds you receive when calling all-in against this opponent
38,434.67 / 30,000.00Subtract this BB value from the effective stack when calculating your calling range. This accounts for the immediate value of winning the bounty.
Early in a tournament a bounty is worth less than its face value because it will change hands again. As the field shrinks the realisable share rises, and the call you can make gets looser.
