After 360 programs, and as established by the regulations, Orestes Barbero abandons Pass word. He does so after his rival for 197 deliveries, Rafa Castaño, has won the amount of 2,272,000 euros, the highest jackpot in the history of the format, both in our country and internationally. The man from Burgos does leave with the money accumulated throughout his long career in the contest, 214,200 euros.
After Castaño’s speech, brand new winner of the succulent amount after responding in a row to the 25 definitions that make up the rosco, Roberto Leal asked for applause “at the height of what Rafa had just done” for Barbero, “one of the biggest contestants” in the game: “This was for either of us. We have said it during these days.”
Orestes, to Rafa: “You deserve every last euro”
For his part, the 25-year-old has praised his partner: “You are the person who has worked the most on this. You deserve every last euro, what you have done has been outrageous. Every moment has been pure stimulation, pure joy. A happiness to transmit so much to each family, every afternoon. Knowing that you have made the lives of many people more beautiful. We have done the entire program in general. It’s nice to be a part of this.”
Barbero has recommended to the Antena 3 audience that they do not feel “sorry” for him: “I have accumulated good money, a nice little boat. I already have the following years figured out”. In addition, she has not lost her sense of humor, as she has joked that she wanted to play her rosco. In this latest installment for both, Rafa has not even let him try, for responding to all the definitions of the circle of letters in a single turn.

Thus ends the longest duel in the history of Pass word. Leal has regretted having to fire the two contestants, who have fought for the jackpot so many afternoons and have entertained the millions of viewers who follow the contest. Notifying that he has taken a liking to space and that he wants to return, Orestes has praised the presenter: “You are the model of being in your place. You have the love and praise of all of Spain and even so you treat each person as someone very special”.
“The format is like that. One wins it and the other doesn’t. It was a duel in which either of them could do it. I’m not going to have false modesty either, I’ve put my hours into this, but anyone deserved it. On the one hand I am very happy, very satisfied. I have given up many things to be here, I have taken off work. On the other hand, I remember Orestes a lot. You deserve it, I hope you come back and that you take home at least 2 million”, Rafa assured.
