Kristen Foxen Breaks Triton Record in Montenegro

The latest raft of high roller events to take place on the Triton Poker Series in Montenegro included wins for Mario Mosböck, Fedor Holz and Daniel Dvoress. In doing so, each of those players took their number of Triton titles to either four or five. But buried among the trophies and the tickertape, Kristen Foxen became the most successful woman ever to play Triton Poker Series events, surpassing Sosia Jiang as the overall leader.
A True Modern Poker Great
With 10 cashes in 2026 already, Kristen Foxen had already passed $15,000,000 in live tournament earnings in ranking events on The Hendon Mob by the time she touched down in Montenegro to play the latest Triton Poker Series. The high roller schedule is gruelling, demanding, challenging, all of those things to legends of the felt and Kristen Foxen has already cashed for $343,000 in an event, breaking a special record in the process.
Kristen has fast become not only one of the best players in the world but a leader even among other female poker players. PokerStake has a stable full of female poker players who sell on the site including the former Global Poker Index Female Player of the Year Cherish Andrews, often Kristen’s closest rival. Many others share the site’s most popular sellers list with her too, such as Kathy Chang, Melanie Pittard and Jackie Liu, all players who are selling to this summer’s forthcoming WSOP events.
Kristen’s fearsome reputation has grown in the last couple of years alone, with her run to the brink of the WSOP Main Event final table inspiring players of both sexes to cheer for a player who they believe truly represents greatness at the felt. In 2026 alone, Kristen has cashed for well over two million, winning her best ever cash for $1,449,000 in the Triton Jeju Main Event and taking down a U.S. Poker Open title for $198,000 before following it up with a runner-up score worth $264,000.

Montenegro Hits Different
Playing in the Triton Poker Series in Montenegro is out of the reach of many players, even established pros. The buy-ins are steep, the player pool teeming with sharks and the prestige off the scale. Winning on the TPS isn’t something that regular poker players do. There are scores of professionals in the game who have never braved the waters of the Triton Poker Series tour.
But then there are others who thrive at the high roller level. Stephen Chidwick is a big winner. Jason Koon has a record 12 titles. And then there’s Kristen Foxen. She is not just a big winner, but a huge one, in these, the toughest of games. Now in overtaking Sosia Jiang, she has become a Triton Poker legend.
In her latest result, Kristen negotiated a tough final table all the way to fourth place for a score of $343,000, losing only to the eventual winner of Mario Mosböck. The former Austrian pro soccer star had

and rode out the board to reduce the field to three, before eventually beating fellow multiple Triton winner Danny Tang to the top prize of $928,000.

What’s Next for Kristen Foxen?
While the Triton Poker Series still has plenty of events to play out in Montenegro, Kristen will be looking forward to the 57th annual World Series of Poker, where plenty of PokerStake’s finest will be selling packages to the series and putting up their action individual events in equal measure.
The World Series of Poker features 100 bracelet events this summer and the Canadian – now ranked sixth in her home country’s list of tournament players and 100th worldwide – will be hoping to win her sixth and record-extending WSOP title in Las Vegas this summer, after previously securing gold in 2013, 2016, 2023, 2024 and 2025. Such is our confidence in Kristen, we’d tip her to grab one before this year’s series concludes in mid-July (or August if Kristen makes the WSOP Main Event final).
With potentially her best ever year at the live felt coming in 2026 and all kinds of deep runs in high roller and massive major events to call upon should she need reminding of her greatness, the next six months could define Kristen Foxen as the best female poker player of all time.
