Having reviewed hundreds of online casinos, and tested thousands of games, Dave manages all our casino review content with the help of our in-house experts. He is particularly fond of live casino games, and loves blackjack and roulette.

Dave has taken in the bright lights of Las Vegas on two occasions to sample the Sin City casinos. There, he fell in love with live dealer games, but is yet to leave the desert with more than he came with. Maybe the third time will be a charm?

🎯 Industry Expertise

Dave has been writing for a living for more than a decade. From curating live sports blogs and writing front page breaking news stories in the national press, to reviewing and rating casinos and games, he is a content nerd at heart. His love of writing is matched by his passion for online casinos. And after leaving journalism behind to focus on the iGaming industry over five years ago, he quickly found himself writing about all things casino. Dave is a communicator at heart and believes content should always speak to people in a way they understand.

📚 Experience

Dave is a content creator in every sense of the word. Passionate about words from a young age, he began his journey into professional writing at the Irish Mirror in Dublin. He reported on the biggest news and sport events in Ireland. He then headed to London where he was assistant news editor at Mirror.co.uk. 

Being a fan of both casino and sports betting his whole life, he made the switch to iGaming in 2019. He honed his casino writing and editing skills at iTech Media before moving to Blexr while living in sunny Valencia for two years. During this time, Dave gained a deep understanding of the industry, and how to write in a way that speaks to casino players and their needs. He also added more strings to his bow by working closely with other departments, such as design, PR and commercial. In late 2024, A move home to his beloved Dublin followed and he is now managing casino content at OLBG

🎯 Goal in Role at OLBG

As the Casino Content Manager, Dave's goal is to cut through all the jargon seen in the casino industry.

His goal is to further OLBG's reputation as a powerhouse in the industry, and springboard the best of his casino content to your search results page in his mission to help you sift through the rubbish and find what you need.

💬 Quotes from David

"Bill Gates was right when he said 'Content is king' back in 1996. Without content, we have very limited ability to communicate with each other. I believe in great, honest content and everything it stands for. It should speak to casino players in a way that shows they are valued."

"The goalposts constantly move in this industry. It's vitally important to stay informed and be prepared to pivot at any moment. Being adaptable is the key to long term success."
