About the author: Dexter Long
I am the editor of 789BINGO PH Guide. Every article on this site carries my name because I review, fact-check and approve all of it before it publishes — including the drafts produced with AI assistance. If something here is wrong, it is my responsibility to fix it, and you can email me directly.
What I cover
- Bingo mechanics — 75-ball and 90-ball formats, patterns, prize pools and the card-quantity maths in the bingo guide.
- Slot maths — scatter triggers, RTP versus volatility and bonus-buy economics in the scatter games guide.
- Philippine payments — GCash, Maya, InstaPay and PESONet, plus the KYC rules behind held withdrawals, in the payments guide.
- Bonus terms — wagering, weighting, max bet and expiry, decoded in the bonus guide.
- Live dealer odds — house edges and side-bet costs in the live casino guide.
- Player protection — budgeting, warning signs and support options across the beginner tips and the responsible gaming page.
How I work
Everything is written from a small-bankroll perspective
I write for someone with ₱500 and a Saturday night, not for someone with an unlimited balance. That is why almost every guide contains a peso worked example, and why the games page compares categories by cost per hour rather than by how exciting they look.
I use AI to draft, never to decide
AI assistance speeds up structure and first drafts. It does not decide what is true. I check claims, strip out invented specifics, replace them with published ranges or a "check the operator's page" instruction, and add the caveats that a generated draft leaves out. The site-wide policy is on the about us page and the disclaimer.
I publish advice that costs the site money
This site earns affiliate commission on some links, which is disclosed in the affiliate disclosure. Despite that, my guides tell readers to decline welcome bonuses with unrealistic wagering, to avoid baccarat Tie bets, to pick slow games over fast ones, and that nobody makes a living from this. Advice that only ever encourages play is marketing, not editorial.
I keep content current and dated
Every page shows its publication and last-updated dates. I review the library quarterly at minimum, and immediately when payment rules, licensing conditions or bonus norms change. The dated list is on the blog index.
My standing advice, in one paragraph
Register with your legal name, finish KYC on day one, deposit the minimum first to test the rail, decline any bonus whose wagering you cannot realistically clear, pick a game whose pace matches your budget, set a deposit limit and a timer, withdraw wins instead of re-wagering them, and stop when either the money or the clock runs out. Do that and you will never need most of what I write. Start with the registration guide.
What I will not do
- Promise winnings, systems or strategies that beat the house edge. None exist.
- Publish a fabricated statistic to make a page look authoritative.
- Remove a warning because it is commercially inconvenient.
- Target anyone under 21, anywhere on this site.
Corrections and contact
If you find an error — a wrong figure, an outdated rule, a broken link — email dexlong@789bingo.com with the page and the problem. I correct genuine errors and update the modified date. I cannot help with casino account or payment disputes; the operator's support and their regulator are the only parties who can act there, as explained on the contact page and in the FAQ.
