Winning Poker Network’s newest pro signings are already making their presence felt in Las Vegas.
Alex Foxen, Chance Kornuth, and Chris Hunichen have each reached final tables during the opening stretch of the 2026 World Series of Poker, combining for $549,385 in early tournament earnings.
That is a strong start for three players who were already known as proven tournament crushers before joining the WPN roster.
Foxen Leads the Way
Alex Foxen delivered the biggest result of the group, finishing 4th in Event #7: $25,000 Heads-Up No-Limit Hold’em Championship for $300,000.
It was another major score for one of the most consistent high-stakes tournament players in the game. Foxen is a two-time Global Poker Index Player of the Year and multiple WSOP bracelet winner, with years of success against some of the toughest fields in poker.
His early run gave WPN a major headline result right out of the gate.
Kornuth Adds Another High Roller Final Table
Chance Kornuth also made an early impact, finishing 6th in Event #24: $25,000 High Roller No-Limit Hold’em 6-Handed for $218,091.
Kornuth has long been one of poker’s most respected tournament minds, with a reputation that extends beyond his results. Away from the tables, he is also known for his work as a strategist and coach through Chip Leader Coaching.
That combination of high-stakes success and teaching experience makes him a strong fit for WPN’s growing pro lineup.
Big Huni Gets on the Board
Chris Hunichen, known to many poker fans as “Big Huni,” added another final-table finish for the team with a 7th-place result in Event #25: $500 Freezeout No-Limit Hold’em, earning $31,294.
Hunichen first built his name online before becoming a regular in major live high-roller events. His biggest breakthrough came at the 2024 WSOP, when he won the $100,000 High Roller No-Limit Hold’em event for his first bracelet and more than $2.8 million.
This latest result adds another strong, live finish to his track record.
More Chances to Make Noise in Las Vegas
The early results give WPN plenty of momentum as the WSOP continues. Foxen, Kornuth, and Hunichen bring modern tournament credibility to a roster that also includes 2003 WSOP Main Event champion Chris Moneymaker.
With several weeks of WSOP action still ahead, there should be plenty more opportunities for WPN Pros to make noise in Las Vegas.
