Melted Felt review
RELATED ARTICLES
After you spend some time involved in the community, you realize that poker just isn’t nearly as funny as it would seem to an outsider. Sure, it has some points of hilarity, but by and large it’s more bewildering and tragic than laugh-out-loud funny. Melted Felt is a site that incorporates all of those elements into a humorous take on the poker community.
Overview
MF is an Onion-style site that publishes satirical news stories that generally draw from current happenings in the pokerverse, both on and offline.
Look
Standard-issue blog design.
Content
As with any humor site, it’s hit and miss. You’ll get some really solid, insightful parody some days, and some cheap shots the next. When it’s funny, it’s funny – and when it’s not, it doesn’t waste much of your time.
Unique pros / cons
The content is pretty unique – there aren’t a lot of sites doing poker humor full-time. The site’s easy to use and is publishing multiple articles a week.
The site is relevant, which is nice if you’re reading daily, as a lot of the articles will draw on the news of that day or week. However, this dates some of the material and makes the archives a little less entertaining than they might be otherwise
Bottom Line
A nice addition to a feed reader or a bookmark list – a little levity never hurt anyone
