Senior Author & Editor

Anca blends her background in generative linguistics with a sharp legal eye to tackle the myths and misinterpretations around gambling. She writes to make sure Irish players know exactly where the law protects them, and where casinos stretch it. "Having a licence doesn't guarantee fairness. It just means they passed minimum checks. We check how they treat real players after you hit the ‘deposit’ button."

An ever-growing love for gambling

Anca’s first contact with gambling came in the form of horse racing bets and long nights of playing card games like Poker and Crazy Eights. Then, she discovered the glitzy and dark world of land-based casinos. Meeting many people that were into that, she made it her mission to protect gamblers from all sorts of related financial and health risks. Now, she specializes in writing informative texts that make complicated T&Cs and complex legislation easy to read for excited players! Using her knowledge of Linguistics, she can translate gambling rules into a user-friendly format.

She’s also the office’s main spiritual advisor, always talking about astrology, numerology, and spirituality. In her spare time, she spends time discovering new passions and integrating them into her work!
