Kristen Foxen Etches Name in Poker History with 6th WSOP Gold Bracelet Win

In the 972nd episode of the PokerNews Podcast, which is sponsored by FanDuel Poker, Chad Holloway, Mike Holtz, and Ben Ludlow come to you from the floor of the 2026 World Series of Poker (WSOP) where they are joined by special cohost Bobby James. You might recall that James was on the winning end of the four-card flop hand involving Ricky Landais. James talks about the hand from his perspective, plus what it was like notching a six-figure score while playing from an airplane, commentating while Ren Lin was originally banned from a WSOP event, and more. As for the episode's main story, that would be Kristen Foxen, who took down her first WSOP $25K High Roller for a career score and her sixth WSOP gold bracelet. She's already the WSOP's most-decorated female player, but could she be poker's G.O.A.T.? It's quite possible. Learn more about Foxen's impressive win and see one of the hands that helped get her there. We also have the 2026 WSOP's first two-time bracelet winner, a POY race that's heating up, and our boy, Jeff Madsen, got it done by spinning a short stack into WSOP gold! Finally, don't miss your chance to win another autographed copy of the poker classic Positively Fifth Street by Jim McManus. A new PokerNews Podcast drops three times a week during the 2026 WSOP!
