John Mehaffey is a poker and casino expert who has been playing online games for money since 2001.
His first interest was online poker, where he won a poker freeroll at America's Cardroom to create a bankroll. In 2002, he became a proposition player at poker rooms and helped get shorthanded games started before the poker boom hit.
John used his bankroll to take advantage of the generous casino and sports betting bonuses available in those days. He specialized in blackjack and video poker offers.
Later, in 2004, he created a poker website called Rake Rebate Review. It helped put rakeback on the online poker map. In 2006, he moved to South Dakota to help manage Bonuswhores.com, a site that helped players find the best poker bonuses during the industry's boom.
John moved to Las Vegas in 2010, where he learned how to find the best video poker and table games. One of his projects involves keeping a database of blackjack rules at each casino, as well as spreadsheets for every table game at all relevant Las Vegas casinos. He also writes about casino players' clubs, promotions, and things to do in Vegas.
