Ever since Mozai joined the Zcode community we knew that, despite his young age, he was very experienced in the sports investments world. From his very first appearances predicting sports results in this community, we were sure he was not just any tipster, but someone who knew very well what he was doing. As of today, he has become a great Tipster and has earned the respect of his more experienced colleagues. Thanks Mozai for this interview
1. Hello Mozai! Please tell us more about yourself, Where are you from?
Hi! Well, my name is Mozai and I was born in a little town in Castellon, but I am currently living in Barcelona where I go to school. I think after finishing the university I will most surely stay in Barcelona though, because I love it here
2. Tell us about your background in this fascinating world of sports betting. How and when did you start?
Well, I just turned 20 years old, so I’m not a veteran in this scene, but I’ve been doing this for over 3 years now. I started when I was 16, helping my father do his “la Liga” pools every week. Since I started liking it so much (then I watched the matches with lots of excitement), I began doing my own pools. After a year of doing so, I met a friend who did sports betting on in-person gambling machines, and he talked me into that. He told me to start doing it, that it was better than what I was doing, and to be honest I was scared at first (because of the stories about getting addicted to this game). Anyway, after much thought I decided to get into that, and at 17 I started making some money (to go out and party with friends ha, ha). Little by little, I started shifting to online betting, since that was much more convenient and stuff. And here I am now, I’m 20, and still have a lot to improve.
3. What sports do you usually predict on?
I mostly do predictions on NBA and soccer, because those are the sports I have a better handle of, and where I feel safer. I’ve also tried baseball (with not much success) and hockey. But I’d rather take predictions from other tipsters on those sports, than make them on my own.
4. Let’s talk more about the predicting system. What parameters do you consider to be the most important ones?
To make a sports prediction, you have to be very cautious and study every little detail, at least that’s what I do. I have several systems, but for making predictions I mostly use these: In soccer, if the prediction has to be made in real time I try to watch the game live from minute zero, with the statistics in one hand, and having studied the match in advance. From there, I use my subjective part to think of a result (this part is very important to me, because from the same information different people get different thoughts). The information I try to gather for predictions is the following: last 5 face-to-face results, each team latest results evolution, table positions and comparatives, goals and cards statistics, referee information, and the most important to me, personal instinct.
5. How many units do you estimate to win this next season, with the kick start of all the soccer leagues in the world?
It’s very hard to estimate how many units you expect to win in this scene, but I hope I can get to win some 200 or 300 units, that’d make me happy. I hope I can help all the people in this great family make big money.
6. If you could use one word to describe your strategy in sports predictions. What would it be?
Instinct
7. Do you think your system may be applicable to any soccer league in the world and maybe to other sports as well?
It is applicable to any soccer league, but the results will obviously not be the same everywhere. My system is applicable just as much in the Spanish league as in the Nigerian league, but for instance in the latter my instinct will be almost useless, because I don’t watch any matches from this league. On the other hand, I watch all the games in the Spanish league, and I know every last minute information. About taking it to other sports, I do it with the NBA, though partially. Because I don’t use the exact same system, but something similar. For the NBA, I rely more on the subjective part than on the objective information, since I’ve been a loyal fan of this sport for years, and I’m very passionate about it.
8. In your opinion. Do you think Las Vegas has control over the sporting events to favor particular results or is it completely transparent?
This matter is very complicated in my opinion. It’s obvious that there’s nothing completely transparent in this world, no matter what’s being said. Let alone in sports betting. What I don’t like to hear is for example that the last World Cup was fixed (or any hearsay of the sort) when it’s a very globally prestigious competition. It upsets me to hear that, about the World Cup or the Champions League. It’s true though that in inferior leagues some things aren’t legal, because there are many hands involved. That’s why I try to stay away from leagues or sports that I know nothing about.
9. What’s the most crucial mistake you made when you started betting on sports?
Trying to make up for the losses. I remember once betting 20€ over a tip, and losing. That same afternoon I asked my dad 40€ (I was 16 and didn’t have any money) and while trying to win it back, I lost it again. A very common mistake, but as they say: you learn from your mistakes.
10. What makes great people great?
Patience to succeed and humility
11. Any practical advice to rookies and to your followers?
Give it time. Try thinking long-term, not thinking about making money for the next weekend just because you need it for something. In this scene you have to move cautiously, little by little, until one day in the future, unexpectedly, you will find yourself handling a lot of money
