Foxen Wins 6th WSOP Bracelet, Joins Elite Tier
Kristen Foxen claims her sixth gold bracelet at the 2026 WSOP, joining poker's most decorated players.
Kristen Foxen won her sixth World Series of Poker gold bracelet this week, according to PokerNews (Episode #972, published June 9, 2026), cementing her place among the most decorated players in WSOP history.
Why It Matters
Six bracelets puts Foxen in elite company — only a handful of players in the tournament's history have reached that threshold. For recreational players and bettors tracking live poker markets, dominant runs like this shift futures odds on overall WSOP series performance and player-of-the-year races. Her continued success also raises the profile of women in high-stakes competitive poker, a segment that remains underrepresented at final tables. As of June 2026, the WSOP is in full swing, meaning bracelet counts will keep moving and leaderboards remain volatile.
Context
Foxen, a Canadian-American professional, had already established herself as one of the most successful players of her generation before this win. The PokerNews Podcast episode features UK player Bobby James as a special co-host reporting live from the 2026 WSOP, indicating the series is drawing significant international media attention this year.
What's Next
Foxen will be an immediate contender for the WSOP Player of the Year title if she continues this form. Watch the bracelet leaderboard and POY standings at PokerNews for live updates as the series progresses.
