The Mystery Bounty event started three days ago and drew a field of 420 entries, but tonight we finally have a winner. Forty-five bounties were paid, ranging from $500 to $15,000, and a prize pool of $125,000 on top of the $75,000 in bounties made for a big day for some of our competitors. 

Christopher Keller from Henderson, Nevada took down the first place prize of $25,430 and the coveted PokerAtlas trophy. Keller also managed to score ten bounties, including the biggest bounty of the event, $15,000.

The heads up battle raged on until level 28 at 11:20 p.m. on day two. Keller prevailed over second place finisher Russel Mcclean after a lengthy heads up battle. With the win Keller adds to his previous total of over three hundred thousand dollars in tournament winnings. Mcclean took home $18,040 plus bounties.

Keller previously worked at an oil refinery in Bismarck, North Dakota. When he was laid off, he moved to his new home in Henderson, Nevada to play poker. If this week was any indication, it's going very well!

Big winners from our mystery bounty event! 

With the loss of Vanessa 'mamacitapoker' Alvarez, we have reached the final table. Players are saving their bounties, leaving us with nine players seated and twenty bounties yet to be claimed. 

There is tension in the air as the remaining players fight for a big prize pool with the biggest bounties still in the barrel. 

We are down to 22 players from our original field of 420 coming back from our first break of day two. Notable bustouts include John Morgan, who showed up in full Resorts World gear but was out when his jacks ran into aces, and Jon Turner who doubled early in the day but couldn't hold on much longer with a short stack. 

Our biggest bounty so far has been $2,500, which leaves an awful lot of money in those bounty bins just waiting to be collected.
