A staunch advocate for fair gaming practices, Sam has built a reputation as a no-nonsense reviewer who prioritizes player safety over flashy marketing claims. With a background in regulatory compliance and a sharp eye for detail, Sam’s reviews are trusted by players seeking transparent, data-driven insights into online casinos.

Backed by years of hands-on research, Sam specialises in analysing complex licensing agreements, auditing withdrawal processes, and exposing unethical operator practices. Prior to diving into the casino review space, Sam worked in compliance consulting for gaming firms, ensuring operators met strict regulatory frameworks in jurisdictions like Malta and the United Kingdom. This regulatory expertise now informs every review Sam publishes.

Known for a sceptical yet methodical approach, Sam doesn’t rely on surface-level claims from operators.

When not scrutinising Terms & Conditions or running withdrawal speed experiments, Sam can be found engaging with player forums, advocating for stronger consumer protections, or analysing trends in global regulatory changes.

Review Approach

When it comes to reviewing online casinos, I don’t gamble on trust. Every review starts with a rigorous verification process, where I examine licensing documentation, test withdrawal processes, and thoroughly vet the operator’s reputation among players. My approach is data-first – if a casino can’t back up its claims with transparent practices, it doesn’t make the cut.

I also focus heavily on the fine print. Many casinos bury predatory terms in their policies, and my job is to bring these details into the spotlight. Whether it’s hidden fees, reduced RTPs, or withdrawal caps, I ensure players know exactly what they’re signing up for. My reviews are written for everyday players, but with the scepticism and precision of someone who’s seen the industry’s worst practices up close. If I say a casino is worth your time, it’s because it’s truly earned that trust.
