a tremendous player, I always saw him lately at the final tables winning big prizes, he always plays high levels, I always like to see him play, he had not won any bracelet until that 250k event he won, it was very special for him, he said he will rest one day and then he will have another event to play, great.

i read that this guy is a big conspiracy theorist and that does not make him very sympathic. whatever he is, he for sure is a very good poker player and winning such an event has to be mindblowing. congrats to alex foxen, we will probably see more of it.

I don't know what this man is because I haven't read about him, but maybe he's telling the truth if he's referring to covid 19 and vaccines. I think it's good to talk very documented, before we think he's a conspiracy theory man.

Wow , $250.000 buy in for this tourney , high rollers are so awesome games , but for sure they are for the most talented players or the wahales with the unlimited bankroll . In any case , $250.000 is a lot of money , most people would regard this amount of money a life changing win if they ever won it in casino or poker games , especially is poor or very poor countries , but these folks play and bet 250.000 in just one game . Insane !! lol I wonder how much big should the bankrll of a pro be so as to be able to participate in such high rollers , we are talking for millions of $$$ . But if they have sponsors to help them , well then things are easier ofcourse .

This player has millions in winnings playing poker, for him it is an entry that is in the normal, there are some players who are banked by percentages to minimize risk, but in general you have to be well prepared to play tournaments of this magnitude.

with those winnings he has playing poker is to be able to enjoy a lot, but always a good player is also a good money manager, he knows that it is not easy to play expensive tournaments, and that he can also lose a lot of money playing, that's why he is always careful with his bankroll.

a smart player who prepares intensely through learning and practice achieves performance and this player wins a bracelet and has achieved that dream that many want. The money earned is a lot and that is even better.

a great poker player, this shows that poker is not just luck, but with study, discipline and perseverance you can achieve the proposed objectives, so we must not get discouraged if things do not work out, we must continue, if we want to go far in this beautiful sport we must sacrifice.

it is very clear that he is not a weak professional, and his prize is a few million dollars. There is a lot of money here and now he can focus more on the game of poker. A quality player does that
