At Casino Mastermind X, we’ve built more than just a content platform—we’ve created a home for insight, strategy, and shared experiences in the gambling world. Everything we publish, every tool we build, and every story we share stems from a single belief: that knowledge transforms the casino experience.
We’re proud to introduce ourselves—the minds behind the mission. We come from diverse backgrounds, but we’re all united by our passion for responsible gaming, smart strategy, and honest storytelling. Here’s who we are and why we do what we do.
I’m Cecilla Pricetalker – Founder & Executive Director
I started Casino Mastermind X because I saw something missing in the gambling world: a place where players could find deep, intelligent content that didn’t talk down to them or overhype the games. My background in mathematics and psychology taught me how important logic and mindset are when it comes to making smart decisions at the table—and in life.
I guide the overall direction of the platform, and I’m involved in every major editorial and strategy conversation. For me, it’s not just about content—it’s about elevating the culture of gambling through clarity, responsibility, and respect.
I’m Marcus Dell – Lead Game Analyst
I spent years playing professional poker and even longer building odds models for casinos before I joined Casino Mastermind X. My job here is to break down the numbers behind the games—whether it’s blackjack, roulette, or the newest video slots.
But I don’t just write for number-crunchers. I want regular players to understand how games really work. When I analyze a game, my goal is to help you make better decisions, not just throw jargon at you. I want you to walk away with insights you can actually use.
I’m Janice Lau – Editorial Director
As Editorial Director, I make sure everything we publish at Casino Mastermind X is clear, accurate, and engaging. I come from a background in journalism and digital publishing, and what excites me most is taking complex subjects—like bankroll management or probability theory—and making them accessible to every reader.
I also work closely with guest contributors, helping them shape their experiences into compelling narratives. There’s a story behind every strategy and a lesson in every win—or loss—and I’m here to help tell it.
I’m Dr. Leo Mendez – Director of Responsible Gambling Education
My career in behavioral psychology led me here. I’ve spent years studying compulsive behaviors and risk-taking, and I believe strongly in helping people enjoy gambling without being consumed by it. That’s why I lead our responsible gambling initiatives.
I create content that helps our readers manage their bankrolls wisely, recognize risky habits, and understand the emotional side of gambling. This isn’t just theory to me—it’s about giving people the tools they need to gamble safely and sustainably.
I’m Alicia Grant – Community Manager
When you send us a message, post a comment, or join a discussion, I’m usually the one on the other side. My job is to make sure our community feels respected, heard, and informed. I moderate conversations, respond to reader feedback, and help new visitors find what they’re looking for.
I’ve managed communities across various platforms, but this one is special—because the people here aren’t just passive readers. They care deeply about the games, the strategies, and each other.
I’m Ravi Kapoor – Technical Director
Every smooth page load, every secure login, every interactive tool you enjoy on our site—that’s my domain. I oversee the technical infrastructure that keeps Casino Mastermind X fast, secure, and reliable.
My background is in systems engineering and cybersecurity, so I focus on both performance and protection. I also collaborate with our analysts and designers to build custom tools that simulate gameplay, visualize odds, and support your decision-making. I believe the tech should disappear into the background—empowering you without ever distracting you.
And We’re Backed by a Global Network of Contributors
While we’re the core team, we’re just one part of something bigger. We work with a diverse group of writers, researchers, and enthusiasts from around the world. They bring fresh perspectives, tell compelling stories, and dive deep into the nuances of casino life. Many are players themselves. Some are experts in finance, law, or game design. All are committed to the same values we are: truth, insight, and respect.
Built by Us. Powered by You.
