The $2,500 WSOP Circuit Championship Mystery Bounty in the Bahamas delivered high drama as 19 players battled for the title. Among the top contenders were Nenad Medic, Vera Dong, Matthew McEwan, and Mark Darner. The event also saw Jack Germaine claim the tournament’s highest bounty of $250,000.
A pivotal moment came when Christopher Jordan went all-in with pocket aces (A♦A♠) in a four-way showdown. The flop (2♣5♦6♠) and turn (2♠) kept him ahead, but the river (J♥) changed everything. Mark Darner hit a set of jacks (J♠J♣), cracking Jordan’s aces and nearly quadrupling his own stack. The hand also eliminated Rod Ward alongside Jordan.
The tournament’s biggest bounty went to Germaine, while Darner’s dramatic river card reshaped the leaderboard. With 19 players still in contention, the competition remains fierce as the event nears its conclusion.
