Professional Poker Journalist

An avid poker player, he dreams of one day playing the WSOP Main Event and has promised himself he will fold aces and kings if he gets them on the first hand to avoid front-page headlines.

Andrew has written for several of the poker world’s biggest sites and continues to enjoy the challenge of bringing readers all the latest news from our wonderful game.

The author of two books (on chess), he is now looking to turn his hand to a poker-based crime novel based on the characters that inhabit the poker world.
