Before Monday, Alex Foxen, Kristen Foxen, Brock Wilson, and Cherish Andrews had teamed up to win five of the seven events already completed.<\/span><\/p><p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Alex Foxen won his latest event \u2013 $15,000 No-Limit Hold&#039;em \u2013 earning $210,000, his 13th PGT title, tying Sam Soverel&#039;s record.<\/span><\/p><h4 class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #003366;\"><strong>A couple won three championships.<\/strong><\/span><\/h4><p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Kristen Foxen won the $10,000 No-Limit Hold&#039;em event a few days ago, taking home $198,000. The Foxen couple has now secured two titles in the first seven events of this year&#039;s biggest high-stakes poker series in Las Vegas.<\/span><\/p><p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">However, despite the strong performance of the Foxen couple, the Andrews and Wilson couple had an even more impressive showing at the USPO. Wilson won the opening event, Event #1: $5,000 No-Limit Hold&#039;em, taking home $120,900. Andrews then added a second title for the couple in Event #3: $5,000 No-Limit Hold&#039;em, winning $143,750.<\/span><\/p><p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">But that&#039;s not all. Wilson also holds two other prize records at the U.S. Poker Open, and he won his second title in the #6:$10,000 No-Limit Hold&#039;em event, defeating Nick Schulman heads-up to take home the $224,000 prize.<\/span><\/p><p class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">These two poker couples contributed a total of 12 winning records in the first seven events.
