Bill Gelman
U.S. Casino Expert
Bill Gelman is a national iGaming writer based in South Jersey, the heart of Philadelphia Eagles country. It's the place he has called home for the majority of his life. One of his career highlights was covering the 2018 Philadelphia Eagles Super Bowl parade. It only took what seemed like a lifetime to experience it. After spending the early part of his career being an award-winning newspaper writer, Bill made the jump to the online gambling industry in 2018. That would be the same year the Garden State legalized sports betting. Bill still remembers covering the NJ online casino industry when a $20-million month seemed like a big deal. It's news he laughs about today, especially after the Garden State keeps smashing previous record months. Being a short drive from Atlantic City has allowed Bill to cover land-based casino news. Over the years, Bill has secured exclusive interviews with executives representing BetMGM, DraftKings, Caesars, and Hard Rock. His gaming industry coverage has appeared on regional and national websites, while he recommends using a variety of online casino apps with BetMGM, DraftKings, and Borgata being a few of his favorites.
