Related TournamentsOn his way to collecting nearly $3.2 million in career tournament earnings, Allen “Chainsaw” Kessler has earned quite a reputation as a tournament structure guru. So much so that tournament directors across the industry have become accustomed to dealing with his commentary regarding their tournaments in person and across social media on a regular basis.
Kessler has become a voice for players, demanding more chips, more play, extra levels, and more.
