Dean is often found at the many wonderful race courses of Ireland, living locally to Fairyhouse, the home of the Irish Grand National is a bonus. If a game of golf, cards, or relative skill is on offer or a major sporting event is on the television then you can expect that an edge will be found, a handicap overstated, and a wager struck as par for the course.
"I’ve been involved in betting since I was allowed to enter a racecourse or a high street bookmakers, finding value, testing the brain and trying to get an edge. At Gambling.com I get the opportunity to provide opinion on many topics across Sports and Casino and have a passion for sound use of skills when it comes to online gambling. I love the Cheltenham Festival and Las Vegas, not at the same time of course.” Dean Ryan.
