About the Editor
Vadim Kornev holds a degree in applied mathematics from Moldova State University. He started betting as a student, lost money in the beginning, and eventually figured out why: emotional decisions, ignoring bookmaker margin, no record-keeping. He fixed all three and reached consistent profitability.
Since 2017, he has been a full-time professional bettor and freelance analyst, writing columns and match breakdowns for Russian-language betting publications. His approach is data-driven: margin, expected value, and strict bankroll management come first.
