Alex Foxen is into the final four of the 2026 WSOP $25,000 Heads-Up Championship, with $300,000 guaranteed and two matches standing between him and a gold bracelet.
ACR Poker put the spotlight on its newest Team Pro after Foxen reached the semi-finals, noting that he has already locked up $300,000 and is now playing for the $800,000 top prize. In a format where every match is effectively an all-in confrontation, the money jumps are huge and the margin for error is tiny.
Our newest ACR Team Pro, Alex Foxen, is down to the FINAL 4 of the $25K WSOP Heads-Up Championship. Locked up $300,000… but he’s just TWO wins away from the $800,000 top prize AND the WSOP gold bracelet!

Foxen’s semi-final opponent was listed as Nikita Kuznetsov in the event updates circulating on X. The match-up matters because the Heads-Up Championship is one of the few bracelet events where table draw and stamina can swing just as hard as technical edges. The players are isolated, the stacks are deep enough for real postflop poker, and there is no hiding from uncomfortable spots.
For Foxen, it is also a branding moment. A deep WSOP run is already good business for any sponsored pro, but a final table in a marquee $25K event is the kind of exposure a room can build a campaign around. If he closes it out, ACR gets a ready-made headline: a new signing delivering a bracelet immediately.
Either way, the story is now simple: Foxen is in the last four, serious money is already locked up, and the bracelet is in range. With the WSOP schedule accelerating into its peak weeks, this is exactly the kind of result that can set the tone for a summer.
