Ran another quiz on POTD. www.puntoftheday.com/p/week-in-re...
Mike pitched this feature to me and I think the first one came out very well. If you are interested in submitting yourself to my critical eye. Let me know. I am more interested in finding writers that can deliver clean copy than good poker players.
For the final week of the year. I am rerunning five posts for free. All content, including video analysis is unlocked and has been posted on POTD. Today's hand is one where I made a huge fold to Jesse Lonis and I was incorrect.

Not only is @puntoftheday.com blog the best, Sam kindly takes suggestions of hands to analyze, as he did today with a hand from the APT main.

The sheer number of football vs soccer jokes
Please more bits about "soccer" vs "football". There simply have not been enough.

Oh no
West Ham will hold on
I donβt post on here that much because the cliche about people here being humourless scolds is often accurate, but the baseball posting here is much, much, much better
