My name is Mary Lutsenko. I use Dirty Footprints Studio to describe the inner workings of casino games, including their features, rules, and the mathematics involved.
What the blog covers
Many posts focus on an individual game. These explain how a slot's bonus round is activated, the meaning of a return-to-player figure over the long term, or the reasons a particular roulette variant possesses a house edge that differs from another.
I also answer the questions about UK rules that readers keep raising. These involve which stake limits are relevant to specific games, the actual scope of a Gambling Commission licence, and what an online site can offer.
Who it's for
The blog is for anyone wanting to understand a game either before they play or as an alternative to playing. You don't need any background, as I define every term when it first comes up.
How articles are made
I begin every article with the provider's own game sheet, where one is published. I then cross-reference it with other materials, including the Gambling Commission's guidance and published rules. I state when I can't confirm a figure instead of guessing. Please tell me if you find an error and I'll correct it.
Independence
Dirty Footprints Studio operates independently. It doesn't accept money from casinos and doesn't provide links to them. You won't see sponsored posts, affiliate deals or lists of "best sites" here, just simple explanations.
