-- New Americas Cardroom Pros are off to a strong start at the 2026 World Series of Poker as Alex Foxen, Chance Kornuth and Chris Hunichen have already reached three final tables, earning more than $549,000 combined.

The early results highlight the strength of the newest Pro players, while placing the online poker brand prominently on the game’s biggest annual stage.

Foxen led the way with a fourth-place finish in Event #7: $25,000 Heads-Up No-Limit Hold'em Championship. His performance earned $300,000 and added another deep run to a career that includes two GPI Player of the Year titles (2018 and 2019) and multiple WSOP bracelets.

Kornuth secured sixth place in Event #24: $25,000 High Roller No-Limit Hold'em 6-Handed, collecting $218,091. As founder of Chip Leader Coaching, he continues to be recognized as one of tournament poker’s most respected competitors.

Hunichen added a final table appearance in Event #25: $500 Freezeout No-Limit Hold'em, finishing seventh for $31,294. The result follows a successful stretch that includes his 2024 WSOP $100,000 High Roller championship and first bracelet victory, earning over $2.8 million.

Together, the three Pros generated nearly $550,000 in tournament winnings through their early WSOP appearances.

Foxen, Kornuth and Hunichen recently joined the Americas Cardroom Pro Team alongside notable poker personalities, including former WSOP Main Event champion Chris Moneymaker.

With many marquee poker tournament events still ahead on the 2026 WSOP schedule, Americas Cardroom’s roster will continue pursuing deep runs and bracelet opportunities throughout the summer.
