Biography & Poker Background

Born in 1986 in St. Catharines, Ontario, Foxen began her journey as “krissyb24” during the online poker boom. She famously built her bankroll through high-volume grinding, once achieving the elite “Supernova Elite” status on PokerStars by playing millions of hands. She transitioned to the live circuit with immediate impact, winning the 2013 WSOP Ladies Championship. In 2017, she began an unprecedented run, winning three consecutive GPI Female Player of the Year titles (2017-2019), a feat she extended to five titles by the end of 2025. In 2024, she was inducted into the Women in Poker Hall of Fame. Residing in Las Vegas with her husband, fellow high-stakes pro Alex Foxen, she is one half of poker’s most successful “power couple,” with the duo sharing 12 WSOP bracelets between them as of 2026.

Play Style & Strategy

Foxen is renowned for a “fearless, high-frequency, and theoretically elite” play style. She is a master of No-Limit Hold’em, known for her ability to navigate shorthanded final tables with a level of aggression that forces even the world’s best “crushers” into uncomfortable decisions. Her strategy is built on a foundation of modern GTO (Game Theory Optimal) principles, but she is equally famous for her exploitative creativity and “soul-reading” abilities—most notably evidenced by her legendary deep run in the 2024 Main Event. She is also a specialist in Pot-Limit Omaha, having won a WSOP online bracelet in the format. Whether navigating a World Poker Tour (WPT) championship or a PGT high roller, her strategy revolves around technical balance and a relentless competitive drive.
