More About David van der Leeuw
David has always loved sports, especially soccer. After finishing his bachelor’s degree in statistics, he started working as a junior data analyst in the gaming industry, where he learned how to interpret odds and player behavior.
That work introduced him to other sides of the gambling business. David became curious about casinos and started playing every once in a while. The atmosphere of live games won him over, and baccarat is still the table game he picks for himself.
Before joining the editorial team at online-gambling.com, David wrote articles for a sports news website as a freelancer. When he applied for a position here, his talent for numbers stood out at once.
How David van der Leeuw Became a Gambling Expert at online-gambling.com
David leads our Dutch-market coverage and brings a statistician’s approach to every operator serving the Netherlands. His reviews of KSA-licensed casinos appear in English and Dutch, as do his guides to Dutch payment methods, and he reads bonus terms with an eye for the fine print. He also writes our blackjack guides.
How David Tests a Casino
David starts every review by checking the operator’s entry in the KSA register. He then makes a deposit and requests a withdrawal, timing how long the money takes to arrive. The bonus terms get the closest read of all, because that is where the differences between Dutch casinos usually hide.
