Kristen Foxen won more than a million dollars in a poker tournament for the first time in her long and successful career, and it was enough to nudge her in front of Vanessa Selbts for the top spot on the all-time money list for women players.

A third-place finish in the $125,000 (+$6,250) Triton Poker Super High Roller Series Jeju II was good for $1.1 million — a half-million more than her previous best of $600,000 she won for finishing 13th at the 2024 World Series of Poker main Event.

The cash put her on top of Hendon Mob’s Women All-Time Money List with $12,183,462, just $245,504 in front of the mostly-retired-from-poker Selbts. She’s the first woman in poker to hit the $12 million tournament cash mark.

Her million-dollar win was her fourth cash in a Triton tourney in Jeju this month. She added another third-place in $10,000 Mystery Bounty event the first week of September, which was good for $116,000.

The 38 year-old Canadian, who was elected to the Women in Poker Hall of Fame last year, has had a very good two years on the high-roller tournament trail, winning three PokerGo Tour events in 2025 alone grabbing her first one last year.

The $125,000 (+$6,250) Triton Poker Super High Roller Series Jeju II event had 43 of the world best high rollers enter, who also added another 23 re-entries to boost the price pool to $8,625,000. The top 11 made the money. Issac Haxton (11th for $216,000), Tom Fuchs (10th for $216,000), Santhosh Suvarna (9th for $246,000), and Jesse Lonis (8th for $323,000) were the players who missed the final table of seven in this seven-handed event.

The top three players cashed at least a million. After Foxen was bounced in third, Stephen Chidwick and Michael Watson made an ICM deal that put $203,624 on top, plus the title.

Watson won his fifth Triton title by hitting a straight flush on the river to deny the amazing Chidwick. The $2,130,812 was the 40 year-old Canadian’s best lifetime cash and his first in the $2 million neighborhood and was his sixth time he won $1 million or more in poker tournament. He joins Phil Ivey and Punnat Punsri as five-time Triton holders, and the win moves him into the 25th position on the Hendon Mob’s All Time Money List.

This was Chidwick’s 16th seven-figure cash — and his second this month alone after winning the $208,000 buy-in Short Deck Hold’em contest on Sept. 12, for $3,455,000, which was his second-highest career cash, behind the $5,368,947 he won in a $1 million buy-in event at the Triton Poker Super High Roller Series London in 2019.

With $73,713,730 in total lifetime winnings, he currently sits in second-place on the All Time Money list, five million dollars behind Bryn Kenney.

Foxen is 129th on that list.
