After Alexander Dreyfus announced the date for the inaugural Global Poker League Draft Day, Lee Davy wonders who is going to left by their lonesome with their backs against the gym wall?

NHL, NBA, NFL, MLB…none of these acronyms mean anything to me. As a Brit, the word ‘draft’ is synonymous with my old man shouting at me for, ‘leaving the bloody door open.’

So when Alexandre Dreyfus announced that Global Poker League (GPL) Draft Day would take place Thursday, Feb 26, 2016, in Los Angeles, my Britishness rendered me blind and senseless.

So why am I as excited as a hyena on heat?
