A child of the 90s, Matthew was coming of age when the World Series of Poker grew in popularity in the early 2000s. Since then, he’s been interested in anything to do with casino gaming, both the traditional in-casino experience and the online format. For years, he’s studied game theory, learning table games like blackjack and poker inside and out. He’s the go-to guy for anything related to the online casino industry.
