Kessler Pleased With New Stud Cards

Mike Patrick

Level 3

Allen Kessler requested that "a thing be put in the thing" about new cards with jumbo index font being used in the stud games this year.

The man known as "Chainsaw" proudly proclaimed that at least 80% of the players in the field are pleased with the change, while tablemates Chris Tryba disagreed and said he wasn't a fan of the new cards, and Jose Paz-Gutierrez said he'd take the under on Kessler's line of 80%.

Regardless, the jumbo index font cards are in play and Kessler for one is a fan.
