The job, broadly, is getting people to read things they were fully prepared to scroll past. At 7bet, what I write about is sports and casinos. I follow my favourite football team with a devotion my family finds faintly alarming: I don't miss a single match, friendlies included. I'm a bit more sheepish about the casino and betting side. It started with an embarrassing number of hours at the blackjack table in Red Dead Redemption 2, then spiralled into a genuine interest in all things casino.
