Alex Foxen took to social media to brag about winning his second WSOP bracelet. He won the first one back in 2022, when he was the winner of the $250,000 WSOP Super High Roller, for which he took home $4,463,700 at the time.
Alex has now played the WSOP Online, which is open only to players from the USA, specifically the states of Michigan, New Jersey and Nevada, where 33 bracelets are up for grabs. Alex Foxen played tournament number 17, which was the PLO Mystery Bounty 6-Max with a buy-in of $500 and a guarantee of $200,000. In total, players here made 466 entries and a prizepool of $209,700. Alex Foxen played here under the nickname "Serapis11" and bought in up to 3 times, which paid off in the end as he was the winner of this tournament. This earned him his second WSOP bracelet and a $39,271 bounty to go along with it. Alex has live tournament winnings of over $33.6 million.
WSOP has cancelled the tournament
Prior to this success, we had seen one unopened bracelet tournament. The WSOP decided to cancel online tournament number 13, which was the $5,300 buy-in, $40,000 NLH High Roller. At least 8 players were required to open the tournament. However, the tournament only had four players registered before the start, so the organizers decided to cancel the tournament altogether.
