About me
Greetings! I am Mathias and I am the founder and also the person in charge of bringing you all the up-to-date information that you might need during your online casino gaming journey, through my articles here on Mr-Bingo.org.uk. I was born and raised here in the UK in the very late 80s and my passion is sports and online gaming.
I thoroughly enjoy online multiplayer games like Dota and this was actually the gateway through which I started my online betting journey. After registering at many different UK betting sites, I decided to take a peek at what the casino part had to offer. Needless to say, I found way more than I had imagined and that was how I figured out the excitement of playing slots but mainly live casino games, and in particular, blackjack.
Being also a huge sports fan, especially a football fan, played a role in my ever-growing involvement in and research about online gaming and sportsbooks. You see, I have always wanted to play but I also have a great dislike for losing. For that reason, researching as much as possible has always been a must, so as to minimize losses and find out about the best pages and brands.
I hope that you will find the information useful and use it to enhance your overall gaming experience, and why not your winnings too!
Education and Professional Career
After finishing high school, I decided to get an economics degree through which I was given the opportunity to do my internship at the Bingo Association, an experience that gifted me with valuable knowledge of the field.
After acquiring my Bachelors from the University of Manchester, I went on to briefly work at a bank. Very soon though, I realized that the mundane everyday life at my job did not exactly suit me. Since I had already started playing at online casinos and it had been my go-to entertainment activity during my university days, I decided to start writing reviews at askgamblers.com for fun and to make some extra money on the side.
Although I had never imagined that my career would take this turn, I found out that figuring out everything about the online casino sites and then writing honest reviews about them actually felt very rewarding. As a result, I took a part time job as a casino and sportsbook reviewer at gambling.com and after spending more than 10 years in the field, I decided that it was time to create something of my own, which led to the creation of Mr-Bingo.org.uk.
Why Did I Choose to Work in Gambling
It is true that my involvement in the field of online gambling did not start with the intention of it becoming a full time job but it was definitely one of the best decisions of my life. In a way, you could say that I turned my hobby, which started simply from playing fantasy games and evolved into an interest in online casino games in general, into a career. It has allowed me to travel a lot, visit real-life Gambling expos, like SIGMA in Malta, and meet with industry pioneers.
It's a great feeling to be able to work on something that I really enjoy, share my knowledge with others, and help them improve their gaming experience while also making it safer.
