Ben Smith
Full-time punter
Ben was fascinated by betting sites from a young (but legal!) age and continues to immerse himself in the UK gambling scene in particular.
He has come a long way since those speculative scorecasts at William Hill, and Ben considers himself a half-decent punter.
Before leaving to become a full-time punter, Ben excelled in comparing and reviewing betting sites on Bookies Bonuses - a website that was his bread and butter.
Having worked with gambling brands in a marketing capacity earlier on in his career, Ben brought immense wisdom and experience when analysing bookmakers in previous years.
