James O’Connor

About James O’Connor

James looks at what a casino really offers: the studios behind its lobby, how deep the game list is once the near-copies are taken out, and whether the licence and the company behind it check out.

James is a casino analyst — games and licences at BetPokies, and checks pages the others write before they go up.
