Smith Giving It to Kessler

Level 3 : 50/100, 0 ante

Gavin Smith and Allen Kessler are seated at the same table and the first thing we heard when walking by was Smith's voice saying, "Am I going to need to put you on suicide watch if you don't cash ten times this year like last year?"

Kessler laughed and said he wouldn't need to be put on watch, but Smith kept talking. He went on to say to Kessler, "When are you going to start trying to win a tournament? Every time you make a final table you just don't play to win. You just play so tight you can tell the most ridiculous bad beat story when it's over."

The ribbing went on for a bit longer and everyone around got a good laugh out of it, even Kessler, as it's all in good fun.
