John Walsh was born and raised in Prince Edward Island, Canada. John always had a keen interest in sports, playing several at an elite level from a young age. He has also followed all of four major sport leagues in North America intently. It was natural for John to wager on sports as he has been doing so since the age of 13. His mathematical mind not only earned him an Industrial Engineering Degree but helps him gain the advantage in any bets that he places.
While going through university, John developed many spreadsheets and databases to assist him in finding value bets. Some of these resources were submitted for school credit. He would also research a great deal about the sports betting industry. In July of 2007 he stumbled upon an article about Betfair, signed up for an account and hasn’t looked back.
Presently he trades full time on Betfair while managing his blog dedicated to betting exchange trading and sports betting strategies.
