Francisco Larre is all in from the big blind with Diamond KDiamond 5, and he needs to improve to stay alive against the Heart 10Club 10 of Jean Duverger in the cutoff.

The board comes Spade QDiamond QClub 4Club 3Spade 3, and the pocket tens hold up for Duverger to win the pot and eliminate Larre in seventh place.

Larre gets to draw the third Mystery Bounty, and he asks his friend Angel Guillen to pick the envelope for him.

Guillen picks the envelope and ever so slowly opens it, revealing three zeros, followed by a five. It’s either one of the three $5,000 bounties, or the top prize of $75,000.

There is a lot of white space after the five, but Guillen keeps sliding it out slowly until he sees a bit of a seven, and then he quickly pulls it out.

It’s the $75,000!

Duverger and Guillen explode in celebration, jumping and hugging each other as Duverger picks up a bounty worth more than the actual first prize of the tournament.

Congratulations to Jean Duverger for drawing the biggest Mystery Bounty!
