HARTLEY HENDERSON has been involved with the online gambling world for more than twenty years. His insights helped Intertops become the first sportsbook online to list odds for reality TV betting when they opened lines for Survivor in 2000. Hartley worked extensively for WWTS in the heyday of that storied sportsbook in the mid-2000s and finally landed at Major Wager writing his popular "Frontline" column for five years. His contacts throughout the online gaming industry are unparalleled and his column often offers exclusive interviews and opinions from gambling leaders around the world. Hartley was voted our top writer in 2017, 2019 and again in 2020. His weekly insights are not to be missed here at OSGA.
