Matthew Trenhaile 'Trench' Answers Your Questions

The Smart Betting Club Podcast

In the latest SBC Podcast I am joined by one of the most well-known and respected experts in the gambling world.

Matthew Trenhaile (or 'Trench') has worked in various roles within the industry for operators such as Mustard Bet and most recently, Pinnacle. Alongside this, he has compiled odds for several sports, worked at spread firms (in both betting and finance) and developed an insight into the betting ecosystem that few possess.

Trench's newest venture is a consultancy, Anubis Trading, and with the launch of his own business, he has been on somewhat of a 'whistlestop tour' of leading podcasts in Europe, North America and South America. With that in mind, we did something a bit different for his appearance on the SBC Podcast, with an 'Ask Me Anything' special where you, the audience, posed questions.

Those questions and Trench's answers can be found below with everything from sharp bookmaking, tipsters, morale questions and ice cream covered. Enjoy!
