About Brent
Brent Holloway leads operator testing and editorial direction at GA Online Casino. He's been working in the iGaming review space since 2014 and has personally opened, funded, and withdrawn from more than three hundred online casino accounts across the US, EU, and AU markets. He lives in Atlanta and tests every operator that lands on the GA Online Casino top-10 list from a clean Georgia residential connection.
Before moving into reviewing, Brent played online and live tournament poker as a primary income source between 2010 and 2014, with a peak Hendon Mob cash of $47K in a Borgata fall series event. That playing background is the original source of the editorial focus on poker traffic, tournament structure, and rake fairness that has become part of how we score operators.

Credentials & Background
- 10+ years in the iGaming review industry, with bylines across three publications before joining GA Online Casino in 2024.
- 380+ operator reviews authored across casino, poker, and sportsbook categories.
- NCPG-trained in problem gambling awareness — completed the National Council on Problem Gambling's responsible gambling certificate course in 2022.
- Atlanta-based — every test is run from a residential Georgia IP, never from a VPN or datacenter.
- Independent: never accepted a free test account, paid trip, or operator-supplied content piece. All deposits used in testing come from Brent's personal funds, reimbursed by the publisher after the review is finalized.
What Brent Tests
Brent personally handles every step of the operator testing process documented on our Methodology page: account opening, KYC, deposit, real-money play, withdrawal, support tickets, and mobile audit. Supporting team members handle research, data tabulation, and final fact-checking before publication.
Editorial Standards
Every review Brent publishes follows a four-stage editorial pipeline before going live:
- Drafted from testing notes within 7 days of the withdrawal landing.
- Fact-checked by a second team member against the original session screenshots and chat logs.
- Reviewed for compliance — bonus terms, affiliate disclosure language, problem-gambling references.
- Published with the date and version number embedded in the page metadata.
