Emjoyed watching ‘Micro Men’ on BBC four this evening. It was a real blast from the past. Despite being pretty young, I too was caught up in the boom during this momentous time in the UK technology industry. While you may wonder how this is related to what I now do, it was back then that I picked up my fathers football pools coupon and started examining games of chance. I wanted a better way to fill out a pools coupon and spent some time writing code to analyse football matches. I remember sitting in the library reading all the material I could, in an effort to help me learn more about why draws occured. I didn’t figure back then just quite were it would lead.

I can honestly say that I have never been able to predict what I will be doing in five years time, I don’t think I can do that now either. But I have learnt that if you follow roughly the right path, you will do OK in time. Nobody can ever be sure what the future holds, you just have to do what you think is right and for the right reasons. It took me some time to realise, but I also learnt that having a positive outlook on things is a great way to life live. It leads you into all sorts of interesting directions.

A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.”

I left a good job in the consumer technology industry to go a trade on Betfair for a living way back in June 2000. I've been here ever since pushing very boundaries of what's possible on betting exchanges and loved every minute of it.
