Patrick is the face of Onlinegamblingsa.co.za - he joined us years ago as a freelance writer and came up through the ranks to become an indispensable part of the team. He's our secret weapon, our gambling expert and a massively talented writer with a knack to make complicated things simple, all while writing with journalistic objectivity.
Today, Patrick trains all of our new online gambling writers and reviewers in wordcraft so that South African gamers may find accurate and succinct information on our website. He takes great pride in his work, and so do we!
Product Owner and Editor
Sports betting and table games are Patrick's specialities. He is an ardent supporter of rugby and the Boks (he often wears jerseys to team meetings). He obsesses over the team's accomplishments and makes an effort to attend some of their games all season long. But don't assume that Patrick is a one-trick pony: he watches and enjoys more sports than you can remember - we've never seen someone explain curling so passionately! You can see why Patrick is our go-to source for all issues relating to online sports betting.
Apart from sports gambling, Patrick is a big fan of table games, particularly blackjack. He spent some of his early years working as a croupier in a land-based casino, where he experienced the thrill in person. Since then, he dove deep into the world of Texas Hold'em and blackjack - he even knows the blackjack basic strategy by heart!
Patrick spends his free time watching sports and playing PlayStation games with his best friend Lucas (he asked us to mention him). When he feels particularly outdoorsy, he might head to Brookwood Estate for some fishing.
