Bill started his writing career as a copywriter for a local radio station after graduating college. He got away from his chosen field but never lost his desire to write.

He writes for several national gaming magazines and newsletters. Some of these publications include; Strictly Slots, The Southern California Gaming Guide, Midwest Gaming and Travel magazine, Southern Gaming and Destinations magazine, Blackjack Insider, and Video Poker Player.
Bill started playing in the Casinos when he made his first trip to Atlantic City in 1980. After mediocre winnings and much excitement, he decided to learn everything he could about Casinos. He started reading and studying everything he could find about the casino games. As his library of books grew, so did his winnings and desire to learn even more. His library contains hundreds of books on all aspects of casino gambling.
Bill started receiving questions about casino poker from his About.com readers. He had played poker most of his life but had no experience playing in a public card room and had never played the popular game Texas Hold’em. In January 2000, he decided to study the game and gain some first hand knowledge. He did more than study; he immersed himself in it until he became a winning player. Besides becoming a winning player in the low limit games he went on to win several Texas Hold’em tournaments.
His article was the basis for his book Get the Edge at Low Limit Texas Hold 'em.
His books are available online at www.billburton.com
