Allen Kessler Releases Full Las Vegas Summer Schedule #Legend

With this year’s World Series of Poker fast approaching, one man who is guaranteed to be omnipresent is Allen ‘Chainsaw’ Kessler, the Vegas pro who has become a legend for his incredible number of min cashes in tournaments.

Tweeting his plans for the summer shindig, ‘Chainsaw’ shared Kenny ‘SpaceyFCB’ Hallaerts excellent Vegas spreadsheet, enabling Kessler and anyone else who needs a bit of organisational help for their tournament schedule to quickly and easily keep track of everything.

For all of you asking for the Vegas summer schedule grid from @SpaceyFCB , here it is! Every summer event in vegas. https://t.co/rH1fMeeSWg

It has become a yearly affair for Belgian pro and tournament director Hallaerts to release his indispensable guide to everything happening in Vegas while the WSOP is on at the Rio, and the updating whenever rooms release their schedules ensures that nothing is missed out.

“Please find the schedule of all poker festivals that are taking place in Las Vegas this summer, during the World Series,” writes Hallaerts, explaining that although he doesn’t charge for this fantastic service to players, he does have a charity he supports.

“I do support REG Charity, you can help me by donating to them."

Hallaerts, for those who missed it last year, finished with a fantastic 6th place in the Main Event, doubling his live tournament earnings with the $1,464,258 payday. Kessler, on the other hand, is noted more for his remarkable run of almost 300 cashes, his biggest live win of $276,485 only a relatively small portion of his $3.4million career tournament earnings.

Kessler also has a reputation for being a very nitty player, which explains the huge number of cashes without any massive scores, the nickname ‘Chainsaw’ being somewhat ironic as he certainly doesn’t cut through the field like one.

This summer’s Vegas schedule, however, will provide him with scores of opportunities to finally hit the jackpot, or at least add to his almost-certainly record-breaking min-cash total.

With schedules from card-rooms such as Binions, the Wynn, Venetian, ARIA and Golden Nugget all expected to be on the final version of Hallaerts’ spreadsheet, all you have to do to work out your buy-ins is enter the individual events you’re playing and the sheet does the calculations.
