VIDEO: Kristen Foxen's Incredible Bluff Demonstrates Why She's Among the Poker Elite

In the US Poker Open finale, Kristen Foxen pulled off a move against David Coleman that commentators instantly labeled as “absolutely filthy.”

Although Kristen Foxen didn't clinch victory in the $25,200 No-Limit Hold’em event at the US Poker Open 2026, she was behind the most memorable moment of the evening. In the last four players, she went up against David Coleman in a spot where most would opt for a call or a cautious fold. Following Coleman's raise on the river 6 c 9 c 5 s A d T s, Foxen chose the boldest path—a re-raise bluff with A c 8 s.

The bluff was even more impressive as Foxen skillfully used her card as a blocker, portraying the story of a very strong hand. Commentator Brent Hanks immediately called her move “absolutely filthy,” and Patrick Leonard echoed his sentiments on X, calling it an insanely good play. Coleman, holding two pair with T h 5 h, found himself under immense pressure and ultimately folded the better hand.
