Is Thomas Zanot the luckiest gambler ever? The poker player from Arizona pulled the second $1 million mystery bounty at the 2025 World Series of Poker (WSOP) on Sunday, and it isn't even close to his biggest jackpot.
Day 2 of Event #1: $1,000 Mystery Millions, a tournament that reached 19,654 entrants, has been quite a thriller, and it hasn't even come close to reaching the final table. That is because the mystery bounty element is in play, and two individuals have already become millionaires.
