Away from the desk...

When he’s not at one of Ireland’s stunning racecourses, you’ll likely find Dean enjoying a round of golf or a game of cards.

“I’ve been involved in betting since I was allowed to enter a racecourse or a bookmakers, finding value, testing the brain and looking to get an edge. At Gambling.com, I get the opportunity to provide an opinion on many topics across both casino and sports. I love Las Vegas and the Cheltenham Festival - not at the same time, of course!”
