Matt Glantz Finds the $1 Million WSOP Mystery Bounty

Matt Glantz drew the lucky $1 million mystery bounty on Tuesday afternoon at Paris Las Vegas in the first ever $1,000 buy-in World Series of Poker (WSOP) Million Dollar Bounty, a no-limit hold'em tournament with 14,112 entrants.

Glantz dug through a chest full of envelopes, all with mystery cash prizes ranging from $1,000 to $1 million, most on the low end, and only one person would go home with the grand prize.

The Pennsylvania native slowly opened his envelope and initially noticed a "1" symbol followed by a comma, but as he continued peeling to further reveal, he discovered he'd hit the jackpot.
