Americas Cardroom Pros Shine at 2026 WSOP
The 2026 World Series of Poker (WSOP) has been a remarkable stage for players from Americas Cardroom, showcasing the talents of professionals Alex Foxen and Rob Kuhn. Not only have they advanced through the ranks of fierce competition, but they've also made significant impressions with their outstanding results.
A Stellar Performance by Alex Foxen
Foxen added yet another highlight to his impressive WSOP career by securing a finish at the final table in the $25,000 High Roller Pot-Limit Omaha, where he placed seventh and earned $267,993. This event was well attended, boasting a staggering 451 entries that collectively created a prize pool exceeding $10 million, specifically $10,598,500. This finish illustrates his remarkable skill and determination in high-pressure situations.
Just prior to this event, Foxen achieved a significant career milestone by winning his fourth WSOP bracelet in the $10,000 Super Turbo Bounty No-Limit Hold'em event. This remarkable achievement has solidified his status as one of the leading players in the tournament circuit for the year. Throughout the 2026 WSOP series, Foxen has also accomplished a fourth place finish in the $25,000 Heads-Up No-Limit Hold'em Championship, bringing in $300,000, and a fifth place showing in the $600 Deepstack Mixed No-Limit Hold'em/Pot-Limit Omaha event, garnering $55,305.
Alex Foxen, recently signed as a pro by Americas Cardroom, joins an elite list of players that includes the renowned Chris Moneymaker, the champion of the 2003 WSOP Main Event. His performances throughout this year have not only underscored his skill but also heightened the profile of Americas Cardroom in the competitive poker landscape.
Rob Kuhn's Commanding Lead in the Millionaire Maker
Meanwhile, his teammate Rob Kuhn has made waves of his own at the WSOP. As the tournament progresses, he heads into Day 3 of the $1,500 Millionaire Maker No-Limit Hold'em event with an impressive chip count of 2,650,000. This places him at the top of the current leaderboard, nearly double the chip stack of his closest competitor, who holds 1,465,000 chips.
The Millionaire Maker, which has garnered significant attention, is slated to resume after a three-day pause, with Kuhn poised to return to the tables with 132 big blinds. His solid position and sizable chip lead provide a clear advantage as the tournament intensifies. The anticipation surrounding Kuhn’s next moves continues to build as he remains a focal point of the tournament narrative alongside Foxen.
Notable Storylines and Future Prospects
The combination of Foxen's bracelet victory and excellent finishes throughout various events, alongside Kuhn's significant chip lead, has solidified the presence of the Americas Cardroom Pro Team as one of the key storylines of the 2026 WSOP. As they both look ahead, their journey serves as an inspiration for aspiring players and a testament to the strength of the Americas Cardroom brand in the world of poker.
