A welder from Naivasha in Nakuru County has become the latest millionaire after getting a Sh9.9 million windfall with Kenya's top betting firm Mozzart Bet on Wednesday after placing a Sh1,150 wager on 10 games.

John Nyoike placed an ambitious bet on a Bournemouth win against Birmingham City, Derby County win over Hull City, both teams to score in Middlesbrough clash against QPR, Blackburn win over Nottingham Forest, Sheffield United to lose against West Brom, Benfica win over PSV, Malmo win over Ludogorets, Ferencvaros lose against Young Boys, Celtic win over AZ Alkmaar and Leinknir win against Volsungur.

Speaking to Mozzart Bet, the 44-year-old welder disclosed why he had chosen to dip into the tricky English Football League (EFL) Championship and the less fancied Icelandic league.

“It is a league I understand well, sometimes it is really unpredictable but I have experience in it because even in my last big win I had a number of games from Championship in my bet slip,” he said.

He added, “I also bet on the UEFA Champions League qualifiers and did some research on their previous performance, I also placed a bet on Icelandic teams which is a league I like so much because home teams rarely lose.”

The father of three who works in Naivasha Town and specializes in window panes, doors and gates, had previously won Sh98,000 and Sh169,000 with Mozzart Bet, the latter being his biggest win before the Wednesday windfall.

Nyoike opened up on why he has made Mozzart Bet his favorite gaming platform.

“I placed a huge amount not because I was confident of winning but in the event that I win, I never want to regret and say I wish I knew because that happened the last time I won Ksh.98,000,” he said excitedly.

“I want to buy a car, land and invest into business with the money that I have won,” he noted.

This comes barely a week after one of the Mozzart Bet users walked away with the maximum payout of Sh10 million as Nyoike advised fellow gamblers following the start of all major European leagues.

“I like Mozzart because you get huge bonuses and every Monday when I log into my account I get some bonus. For those who are betting, I would advise them to focus on the top European league because they are now back and bet consistently because you know more about the form of a team and do a lot of research like injuries and form,” Nyoike added.
