Hello, I’m Mark

Tell us about yourself

I’m a casino player and a tech-nerd by heart and an author by the job. When I’m not writing reviews, I read about the latest software developments in the industry.

What are your favourite casino games?

I love all casino games but am especially fond of online slots. The thrill of the unknown really gets me going. Of course, sometimes I like to have control over the games, and that’s when I prefer a more strategic one.

Have you played everything reviewed on this site?

Yes, absolutely. I’m a professional and believe that my advice would not be legit if I haven’t personally tried each casino game I review.

What is your favourite movie?

The movie Casino with Robert De Niro is a must-watch for every lover of the gaming industry. The director Martin Scorsese created a timeless classic that will outlive us.

It’s fair to say that from a young age, my love for electronic games was born and ever since continually growing. After completing my BA in Multimedia Journalism at GCU – Glasgow School for Business and Society I focused all my attention on iGaming. My passion for the industry revolves around the rapid development of the technical side.

I’m especially fond of online slots because they provide unique opportunities to hit special rounds and jackpots at any time. The RNG games can’t be controlled like a skilled game of cards such as casino poker for instance. But the great graphics and entertaining themes really connect with me.

I love to interview experts from the software studios because their brains work on another level. I remember when I got to interview some professionals from the award-winning Microgaming studio. From first sight, it was plain and simple why they’re leaders in the industry. That’s why my columns are mainly focused on software and online slot reviews.

When I joined bestnlinecasino.com in 2011, the project was just getting started with a couple of enthusiasts. Now, we’ve grown our team with the aim of always providing our readers with something that will be of their benefit. Whether it’s a new online casino in the UK or the recent gambling law change, we’re always the first to report it.

Why can you trust my advice?

I like to consider myself as an expert in what I do. I don’t claim to know it all; however, through my mistakes and personal experiences, I’ve learned a lot. Most of it the hard way. I’m driven from the idea of educating fellow players about responsible gambling by sharing my expertise. And if I can save you the hassle from making the same mistakes I did, I’d be delighted
