Pokerstake: Allen Kessler's 2025 WSOP 10k events (1 Viewer)

[WedgeRock]

Watching DNegs' vlog for the last few years, I put some money on Pokerstake, but DNegs' action always sells out before I can buy it... So I just have this money on Pokerstake just sitting there...

Today, I backed Allen Kessler in multiple events (1 stake):

5/31 $10K Omaha 8 WSOP 2pm
6/3 $10K Dealer's Choice WSOP 2pm
6/6 $10K Stud WSOP 2pm
6/10 $10K PLO8 WSOP 2pm
6/14 $10K Big O WSOP 2pm
6/16 $10K Razz WSOP 2pm
6/18 $10K HORSE WSOP 2pm
6/26 $10K 2-7 Triple Draw WSOP 2pm
6/30 $10K Stud 8 WSOP 2pm
7/2 $10K 8 Game Mix WSOP 2pm

Even if I don't win, its worth the sweat. Plus, DNegs always talks to Allen on camera, so I'll get my daily updates on how Allen is doing.

Looks like he cashed in the 5/31 Omaha 8 event.

I think u save money by missing out, DNegs is quite a losing player at WSOP events.

He even ends up in the red after winning a bracelet last year

Looks like he cashed in the 5/31 Omaha 8 event.

Niceeee

Does Poker tourney pro ever make money? It just seem like a lot of them are losing money instead

I also heard stories from pocast that some people only have 5% of their own actions for tournaments

I agree. Watching DNegs' vlog, during multiple bullets and high buyin tournaments, it seems like he's been in the red for the last few WSOPs.

Seems like -EV to play in as many events as he does.

He was pretty salty about not getting drafted in the 25k. So funny.

I'm seeing updates from May '25 as well as 2024 totals updated in Jan '25.

Event #2 for the Chainsaw parley is the $10K Dealer's Choice.

Looks like he busted in 66th place; top 23 get paid.

Duh.

That was the wrong event (how could he cash for $3k in a $10k event?!). Kessler busted the $10k Omaha 8 event on Day 1.

You better wear shin guards when wielding that chainsaw, son. Too much power for you.

You won't get rich backing Kessler (unless you can get a piece of his slots play) but it's probably a safe investment.

10 events at $10k each is $100k. I need him to win $100k total to break even (well, there is a 1% markup), and anything over that amount is gravy. Min pays are typically $20k, depending on the field size, so I just need 5 min cashes. Worst case scenario, he busts every tournament and I lose $20.

@CraigT78 has done much worse things over $20.

Looks like Allen skipped Event #25. I can't find his name for any day of the event. Not sure how that affects staking.
