Kessler gunna Kessler, you know?

What that means that if there’s a leak in a structure or he thinks your poker room is charging too much vig – Kessler is going to call that out as he sees fit. It’s rarely tactful, often times crude – but it’s what he does. The poker world just kind of accepts it, maybe cracks a joke and moves on.

Anyone considering playing @PlaygroundPoker @wpt main; The std fee is $3200+300. Playground is charging $3395+455 and pockets the extra $155— Allen Kessler (@AllenKessler) November 18, 2014

This time though, when he called out Canada’s Playground Poker Club, which is hosting the upcoming stop of the World Poker Tour, he didn’t exactly get the standard customer service response.

@AllenKessler @WPT Our fees are 10% from $100 up to $4K, plus the std 3% for tips. If you dont like that, please dont play here.— Playground Poker (@PlaygroundPoker) November 18, 2014

Don’t like it, don’t play here. Boom. Not exactly the stereotypical Canadian good guy reply one might expect. Also, pretty terse for public response.

@PlaygroundPoker @WPT I can’t justify paying $455 in fees per entry and reentry for a $3500 event. Sorry.— Allen Kessler (@AllenKessler) November 18, 2014

Kessler goes on to claim that the Playground Poker Room is “stealing hundreds of thousands in extra fees” from poker players.

As it turns out though, the Playground Poker Club has a bit of a feud with Chainsaw and they feel like they’ve just had enough of getting Kessled (™).

@Schultzie25 We have the best customer service in the industry, period. But when one person wages a 2-year vendetta against us, we respond.— Playground Poker (@PlaygroundPoker) November 18, 2014

.@Schultzie25 the last comment was directed solely at @AllenKessler due to a long standing history. Customer service is our top priority!— Playground Poker (@PlaygroundPoker) November 18, 2014

And it ended right there.

Oh wait, no it didn’t – Kessler took to snap clicking the RT button and the Playground heard an earful from Kessler’s supporters:

Who is in charge of “@PlaygroundPoker”:https://twitter.com/PlaygroundPoker’s twitter feed? Better question, who will be in charge tomorrow? #showers @AllenKessler— Dan O'Brien (@DanOBrienPoker) November 18, 2014

@AllenKessler @PlaygroundPoker @WPT What a piss poor reply from @playgroundpoker When will places learn that customers concerns r priority— Jerry Young (@NoHoldsBarredKC) November 18, 2014

@PlaygroundPoker love how you make it personal when @AllenKessler is spitting #factsONLY you guys should grow up & try listening more.— Cord Garcia (@CordGarcia) November 18, 2014

@PlaygroundPoker @AllenKessler @WPT Wow, this is how you handle a customer inquiry/statement of concern? Your joking right?— Patrick Ray (@Acesfull_44) November 18, 2014

@PlaygroundPoker @AllenKessler @WPT Playground w/ the Tony Soprano reply. U can rake as much as u want just dont shit on people on twitter.— Tall Ass Persian (@Its_Preeeeemo) November 18, 2014

And the hits just keep coming.

So, what do you think? Is Kessler out of line here by making a big deal about fees or does Playground Poker owe “The Chainsaw” an apology? Let us know!

Despite charging $455 fees for each entry/reentry @wpt $3500 @PlaygroundPoker a ton of stepfords will still show up and play. Sad situation.— Allen Kessler (@AllenKessler) November 18, 2014

Our last comment was in bad taste. No matter how much animosity is between 2 people, negative comments should be kept out of a public forum.— Playground Poker (@PlaygroundPoker) November 19, 2014

The partypoker WPT Montreal event starts on November 20th with the first of 3 starting flights.
