Carving Up the Competition

Phil Laak and Allen Kessler yesterday
Phil Laak and Allen Kessler yesterday

Everyone's in the money now, including everyone's favorite weapon of mass destruction, Allen "Chainsaw" Kessler. Kessler had been tied with Shawn Buchanan at the top of the 2010 WSOP cash list, each man with 8 apiece coming into today. This 9th cash puts Kessler in the lead, and he's just one away from tying Nikolay Evdakov's 2008 record-setting ten cashes.

We'll go out on a limb and guess that the Chainsaw won't be entering the £10,000 Heads-Up event tomorrow, so the Main Event will likely be his final shot to tie Evdakov's record.
