I've heard that if you combine that with the June '04 edition and put it into a spreadsheet, it predicts the flops for you.

I just called Nick who is responsible for the Newsletter (he is the one signing it on the bottom) and he informed me that unfortunately this had happened to a few subscribers.
He just changed the email method he is using for sending the newsletters out, and that might be the reason. I actually had the same thing happen for me on a mail from Planet poker, I sent them a reply informing them that I was getting gibberish, they never replied me back, and the reason must have been that the email look perfect when you hit reply! Anyways, Nick will surely not send out more of these before he has fixed this problem. In the mean time you can use the link below to take a peak and maybe win some free $ in the Trivia question.
