Nicholas Crouch: Chief Editor and Slots Expert

You’ll likely see my name on many articles on Scams.info as I’m the Chief Editor and have written for the site for many years. It should be noted, however, many of the articles on this site are collaborative efforts, drawing on the unique insights of each team member to bring you the best information possible.

How I Got Interested in Online Gambling

If I said my first gambling experience was the football pools, then it will give away my age! But that was my introduction and my first understanding that having an edge through knowledge could be profitable.

As a youngster I enjoyed playing the penny slots at the arcade on holiday, but even at a young age I understood this form of gambling was purely entertainment. Nobody ever really won. It still amazes me to this day that people believe it is easy to make a large profit playing online slots.

After university, I joined a sports content website as a writer before moving up to subbing and eventually running a small department, which wrote about sports betting. It was around the time of the UK online gambling reform in 2005 and I had to quickly learn about the new landscape.

Online Slots Expert through Research and Experience

Sadly, though inevitably, that company went bust (great content, no revenue stream) and for the next few years I earned a living writing freelance content for various casino and sports betting sites. I specialised in the early days in roulette and blackjack though I could write about online poker too.

I stayed ahead of the game (and in freelance work!) by keeping abreast of all the latest developments in online gaming and started to take a particular interest in online slots. Aside from writing about them, I enjoy playing them. I particularly enjoy high variance slots (I’m happy to wait for those slightly bigger wins!) I rarely win but I enjoy the fun and entertainment.

I love writing about new slots and think I’m expert enough nowadays to give an honest opinion on the gameplay and the ability to offer recommendations of where players should go to safely enjoy certain titles.

Editing and Writing at Scams.info

As Chief Editor, I plan and decide what articles are going to interest the website visitors. This involves taking the time to research what is currently popular among players and what games are being showcased by the best casinos.

I still enjoy writing and have taken pleasure in producing content for the Scam’s blog. Writing and researching articles for pieces that can range from detailed guides such as the best UK online casinos ranking through to fun posts such as one entitled Gods of Gambling Worldwide certainly keeps me on my toes!

Not only is it important to me that we only recommend safe and secure online casinos on this site but also that players understand that playing games of risk is purely entertainment. No player should be under the illusion that it is an easy way to make money.
