Will Kassouf is playing for a shot at $10 million and a World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event bracelet. But the controversial motormouth has continued his antics on Day 7, leading to a multiple-round penalty.

The British poker player engaged in a heated argument with Jack Effel, the WSOP's Senior Vice President of Poker Operations, heading into a break on Saturday. Kassouf, in that 10-minute conversation, took a shot at those who've been critical of his behavior during the Main Event.

"Americans can't take it," Kassouf told Effel. "There's a method to my madness."

Polarizing Poker Player Penalized

Kassouf has been the talk of the poker community the past few days. He's faced heavy criticism from PokerGO viewers who've been fed up with his antics, which include incessant tanking and relentless speech play. Many viewers, however, have voiced opposing views and have said they find it entertaining.

But Kassouf reached Day 7 with one of the smallest stacks out of the 57 remaining players. That number has dwindled to just 45, and he was still stuck near the bottom of the chip counts, at the time of publishing.

Effel, as a crowd of poker fans hovered around the outer tables inside the Horseshoe, questioned why Kassouf has been behaving in such a manner when he's playing for millions of dollars.

Kassouf, who was slapped with a 10-seconds-to-act penalty due to repeated tanking, cried foul and argued that he's being picked on.

"We're not out to get you, Will," Effel said.

Kassouf continued pleading his case, arguing that his antics are good for the game because he's drawn attention to the PokerGO livestream.

"I'm not worried about the coverage. I'm worried about everyone having a good time," Effel responded.

Effel, who dealt with Kassouf's behavior as the tournament director during the 2016 WSOP Main Event, was able to calm the poker player down during the break. He offered to remove the 10-second shot clock if "you change your behavior." Kassouf's shot clock increased to 30 seconds when he moved to the feature table, of which tournament staff could be forced to lower if his antics continue.

Kassouf finished 17th out of 6,737 players for $338,288 in the 2016 WSOP Main Event. Effel was forced to intervene deep during that infamous run after Kassouf, who was given a one-round penalty, taunted Stacy Matuson during a hand.

Kassouf had just 14 big blinds at the time of publishing and was moved to the feature table. He has spent much of the day arguing with WSOP staff, claiming he's being treated unfairly.

The polarizing poker player has locked up at least $200,000, but stands to win much more if he can spin up his stack. If that happens, there will certainly be some unhappy poker fans. And also some who will cheer.

Kassouf isn't the only player who ran deep in the 2016 WSOP Main Event still standing. Kenny Hallaert, the sixth-place finisher, bagged the Day 6 chip lead. Anthony Gregg, who finished 50th that year, also had a strong stack following the Day 7 break.
