Allen Kessler may be best-known for his Twitter rants, but he occasionally makes noise on the felt as well. Such was the case at Heartland Poker Tour Boomtown New Orleans, where Kessler finished second in the $1,100 Main Event to Seth Foster, who collected $59,891 for first place.
It was the biggest career score for Foster, who added an HPT bracelet to his World Series of Poker Circuit ring. Kessler, meanwhile, added yet another chunk to his $3.3 million in live cashes.
