I can't wait to see if he changes his approach to the players.

I think wsop needs to have a standing on these issues coz such spoil the game

Mislim da WSOP treba imati stav po ovim pitanjima jer to kvari igru.

I totally agree; all players should feel comfortable in the tournament. Verbal abuse should be completely prohibited.

I feel that way about Martin Kabrhel.
Kassouf is just an obnoxious twat ^^

That was better than getting Rick-rolled lol.

Great decision for WSOP viewers on youtube or TV ...... horrible news for players and management at the tourneys .

You even get verbal abuse on-line.

Hahaha maybe he’ll be toned down some??? Doubt it tho

Crazy dude who banned for a reason, here is no place for clowns

frank174 · Sunday at 11:11 AM

Let him play,when he crosses the line just kick him out of the tournament on the spot,or better yet when he goes off maybe it will be on the wrong person,firm believer in everybody meets their match,now that would be fun to watch

Kabrehl is the definition of a total douche. His shtick is so unbelievable unfunny and mean spirited, its absolutely mind-blowing that there are people who support such a character and his behaviour.

Not that im surprised that he got you, just saying.

I think he's a complete jerk.

Can you imagine a person living out their dream to play in a couple events at the WSOP in Vegas. Maybe they've waited 5years... maybe 10 and they get stuck on a table with this piece of self-centered piece of shee-ite. Having to endure his ridiculous chat/banter and the constant stalling. It would be disappointing at best. Instead of letting it overwhelm me at the table, I think I'd need to tune him up during the break ("Oops! Must've been slippery by that urinal!").

Can you imagine being his Mom and seeing him on your tv screen?!?!?!

But there is another side to this as well, because do we really want live poker to be a bunch of people wearing sunglasses, hoodies and headphones, and not saying a word other than "call" or "raise"? If you ask me, there is to much of that already. And as for stalling, there is a pretty simple solution to that, which is called a tournament clock.

Loud , boorish, controversial behavior helps the ratings . Sadly it seems , these decisions by the WSOP higher -ups are strictly a business calculation .

That's the extreme opposite (which there is a lot of). But I don't find this guy amusing at all. I think he's an a55hole. Being an a55hole on the table is unnecessary for good viewing.

Have you ever seen that competition where they take turns slapping each other in the face... attempting to knock each other out? Why not just allow player's to reach across the table and slap the smile right off the face of someone like Martin? I bet you the views would go up tenfold. Now that's something I would definitely watch. I'd even sign up to a paid subscription at PokerGO if this was tolerated on the tables (Oh yah, I already paid for a subscription to watch the guys with scarves wrapped around their heads).

Hahahah. Funny cause for me, you're "giving off douche vibes" from the beginning

You're especially a dick towards new members. Regularely. Just saying 😉

I am not saying, that everything, Kassouf has done, is ok. I have not watched the footage from WSOP 2025, but I am sure, they had good reasons to ban him for the rest of the season. But I also dont think, he is some kind of super Villain ruining live poker, and I do find him entertaining at least at times.

Funny how perception works. I find his posts humorous, especially the ones geared towards you.

I'm sorry. I was actually referring to Martin in those last posts (responding to a couple others who'd started mentioning Martin)
