Mathew Zachary
Born:
Since I was five years old, I could already play poker and blackjack – the luck of growing up in an environment with gamblers. My parents used to host a monthly poker tournament in our living room and play with their closest friends and neighbours, and I was always the dealer. Twenty years later, I was already studying guitar courses and I knew I wanted to find a way to combine it with gambling. I will graduate soon and my aim is to become a guitar musician for an famous band and improve my skills and climb higher!
