About Liam Campbell - Your Australian Online Casino Expert & Responsible Gambling Advocate
G'day, I'm Liam Campbell, casino content tragic, lead reviewer and notorious rant-writer over at audbet-365.com. My job? Simple: help Aussies dodge the online casino traps. I've seen the dodgy ones-and the surprises keep coming! Four years in, I'm still pumped to see clearer, fairer choices for punters. Online casinos should be easy, not a headache.
Honestly, player safety's my thing. That, and I've copped enough scams to stay sharp. Feels like a gut instinct at this point.
Expertise and Credentials
Been around this industry a while-long enough to see the trends come and go. I started off watching how local habits shift-blokes chasing big bonuses now look for hassle-free payments. Sticking up for fellow Aussies has become a bit of a mission.
Started out thinking a high RTP was all that mattered-turns out, transparency's trickier than the math. Had to dig into T&Cs a lot more than I planned. Some industry events are as dry as week-old toast. Not every council rule makes sense-if one's daft, I'll say so.

I'm always updating-been to a bunch of local gambling seminars (yep, lost track of which year at times). Sometimes I'll even jot down notes mid-talk if something actually clicks. Toss in a couple of articles for trade mags on player safety, mobile casino headaches, even dodgy new laws-my notepad's seen it all.
Specialisation Areas
Some days, it's a marathon of pokie reviews-others, I'm knee-deep comparing bonuses or untangling payment woes. No strict menu here, just what matters to Aussies.
- Truth be told, my day's usually eaten by fiddling with new pokies or sorting out some payment hiccup. If I find something wild (good or bad), that's what you'll see in my write-ups.
- Let's be real: I'll dig into pokies, but if a new payment pops up, I'm all over it. And yeah, keeping up with AU regs is a full-time gig.
- Some days, I'm deep in games; others, chasing bonus fine print. If there's a new law, you'll hear my rants. (Don't get me started on app bugs...)
It's wild to see what's changed since I started-lots more Aussies jumping into online play, and the learning curve's real. Took me ages to realise not all bonuses are worth chasing. Early days, I'd jump in too quick-now, it's all about the fine print. Look, I'm no slot whiz-mostly stick to table games. Take my advice with a grain of salt if you're a high-roller or bonus chaser. Might miss some details if you're a sports betting fanatic-give me a shout if I do!
Achievements and Publications
I've lost count of how many articles-somewhere north of a hundred, give or take a few. Let's just say I've written a stack of reviews (120? Not out of the question, but who's counting?).
My real aim? Cut the nonsense and help mates avoid losing their shirts. Can't stand shady sites, so if I find one, I'll call it out. Nobody wants a sugarcoated review.
I've also collaborated on research projects with the Australasian Gaming Council, focusing on player protection tools, and have spoken at regional forums about digital payment safety in online casinos. Not everything's smooth: council talks can get dragged out and, sometimes, flat-out confusing. Still, they mean well.
These milestones aren't just about me-they help Aussies suss out the good from the dodgy and, hopefully, dodge a few headaches along the way.
Mission and Values
My real aim? Cut the nonsense and help mates avoid losing their shirts. Can't stand shady sites, so if I find one, I'll call it out. Nobody wants a sugarcoated review.
Early on, I worried about players getting blindsided by sneaky T&Cs. These days, after seeing mates burned by hidden terms, I'm fighting for fair play. If a site's dodgy? I'll say it loud. If there's a catch, I'll let you know.
I'm a strong advocate for player protection, but at first, I just wanted players to find good bonuses. But after some messy surprises (been there!), I realised full transparency is non-negotiable. If there's a catch, I'll let you know.
Regional Expertise
Based in New South Wales, I'm smack bang in the thick of Australia's shifting online gambling landscape. Keepin' it fresh means seminars, workshops, yada yada. If I ever nod off, it's definitely the legal talk's fault!
Bit wild-POLi once blocked me for half an hour mid-rainstorm. Had to call customer care (never fun). You'd be surprised what hiccups pop up with the Aussie payment stuff. Testing payment methods? Let's just say I've racked up stories, like the time Skrill froze my night out. A mate still teases me about it-Aussie tech, hey.
We Aussies love a cheeky punt, right? Not afraid to call out a dodgy operator-'no mucking about' is my motto. Got to admit, the 'she'll be right' attitude works... until you hit a withdrawal snag. Had that happen more than once!
Personal Touch
Once had a player write in after scoring a bonus no one else spotted-felt like sharing in a small win! Oh, and I'm hopeless at roulette, but blackjack's the one that keeps me coming back. Said it before: gambling's fun... until it isn't. Seen both sides, so I always tell folks-keep it light, not serious. Funny thing-once won big, nearly blew it in an hour. Now, I tell everyone: set limits, or the fun ends fast. Learned that the hard way.

I get things wrong (more often than I'd like). Shoot me your casino gripes-makes my day.
