About Matthew O'Connor

I’ve been playing and writing about the iGaming industry for more than a decade, beginning as a poker player with ambitions that didn’t quite match reality. Over time, I expanded into slots, live casino games, and other forms of gambling, eventually channeling my experience into creating clear, honest content to guide players. I’ve contributed to several major online platforms, covering casino reviews, game insights, and industry developments. Today, I focus my work at CasinoPlusBonus, where I continue to share practical knowledge shaped by years of hands‑on gaming experience.
