The badge is quite the contradiction considering that Allen is generally considered one of the biggest nits in the game of poker and is always looking to increase his equity as a tournament grinder.[7]
He is a fan of playing penny slots and video poker often tweeting out photos of his notable wins. Rumor has it that he once played penny slots for 37 hours straight. [8]

The Mid-State Poker Tour's Main Event tournament structure was designed by Allen Kessler and is identified as 'Chainsaw Approved'.[9]
The term 'Chainsaw Approved' is now commonly used in the tournament poker community to refer to an event whose blind structure and fees are a good value for the player.[10]
Kessler's complaints, along with other players, actually effected a change in the blind structure for some of the 2015 WSOP events according to an interview with Tournament Director Jack Effel.[11]
