My Blog Roll – Kevin Stevens
This is the first in a series of articles which will see UKPOKERINFO ask some of pokers top bloggers to pick there favourite regular blog reads. Unfortunately none of pokers top bloggers where available so I had to step in for week one.
So week one’s blogger is me, Kevin Stevens, my blog is Flipyouforit and I found this process very difficult because, frankly I could have chosen twenty or thirty blog’s. So aside from my picks I would also recommend, Joppa Road, Girlie Poker, Pud’s Progress, Get Carter to name just a few.
I have also excluded all the UKPOKERINFO bloggers I regularly read, I purposefully left out all theses guys because I presume you already know there work, so sorry LD, MATT_L, DGB etc.
Again there are so many great poker blog’s out there (In fairness there’s a lot of crap too!) it was hard to cut them down to seven, But I managed to so I hope you enjoy my choices.
