A Progressive KO (Knockout) tournament is one in which half of your buy-in goes to the overall prize pool to be paid out like a normal tournament, while the other half constitutes your bounty. The progressive element comes in because when you eliminate another player, you only get half of his bounty in winnings. The other half attaches to your own bounty, meaning that: the more players you eliminate, the bigger a target you become.

Knocking someone out early on will provide a boost to your bankroll in the form of 25% of the tournament buy-in, but this is a microscopic fragment of the overall prize pool. The big money still resides in the deeper stages of the event and survival is still your utmost priority for that reason. Avoid risking large portions of your stack early on without a clearly favorable investment. While the expected value of going all-in early on in a coin-flip situation is a bit higher than in a standard tournament, it is lower in a progressive knockout than in a regular knockout as you win 25% of a buy-in as opposed to 50%. Getting through the bubble into the money remains the number one goal.
