More About John Isaac

After college, John moved to Pennsylvania for a master’s degree in political science and international relations. The Keystone State was also where his interest in gambling started, with the occasional blackjack or poker game among friends.

John took to card games quickly and set out to learn everything about them. He read the strategy books, built up his skills at the table and has since played blackjack and poker at some of the biggest online and land-based casinos in the US.

Today, John edits our card game guides. His politics degree also makes him the editor for online gambling law and the legal restrictions that differ from state to state. He follows the latest legislative news and keeps our readers informed.
