This Day in PITW History: June 20

A daily look back at the league that refuses to let anything be forgotten.

June is a fitting month to start this column. The league office is officially launching its media department this week, which means from here forward, the history stops being something we remember and starts being something we record.

History is just the bad beats we agreed to keep.

Got a memory that belongs in this column? The Commissioner is collecting them. Until then, browse the This Day in History archive as it grows, day by day.

Filed by the PokerInTheWood Media Department — mostly true, occasionally sworn to, always respectful. The Flock of Donkeys, est. 20+ years ago.
