The kiss of death when it comes to Drake placing bets on Stake is real. I feel like Suga Sean is the only bet he’s ever won. Next big fight I might have to just bet against whatever Drake posts regardless of however I feel about the event. That seems to be a winning strategy looking back historically.

First when I heard about this News it was like a nightmare, although I know the lose is not going to bring any negative effect on him reason is because he can still afford that exact amount he lose from that bet.well if I happens to be in drake's shoes I think this world will not be conducive for me either.

For us shrimps or planktons when it comparing into Drakes amount kind of betting amount then we would really be telling to ourselves that we wont really be betting on such big amount but just like on what
you've said that if you are in his shoes then for sure you would really be that not be affected too much with these loses since he could really be able to generate these amounts with ease.
You wont really be having on your right mind on making up this big bet without having those considerations or simply speaking on getting all in with your money.

Just like into those links been posted above which it does really shows on how many notable loses did Drake do able to experience out but still here we are now on where
he do still make out those kind of loses on which some people had already been thinking that they would really be making those counter picks. lol
Actually no one really that anticipate for that thing to happen on this match up. It is really just that a total humiliation.

Someone like me cannot compare myself to Drake, he is a celebrity and not only that, his family are rich and the dude can never be broke in his life, even when he chose to live a miserable one, all that surround him are full of wealth, when he gambles, it's because he think he already have enough and want to catch cruise in gambling for him to have made bet with such amount, though his case was not the highest but as we can see, he never consider such as a loss on himself.

I'm not sure if someone in the thread commented like this, but for me that bet might be part of paid partnership negotiations with Stake and Drake. It could be free bet and in addition to that Stake.com will give another payment for advertising. This is how most casinos work when it comes to advertising. And I consider that bet as a decoy so that some bettors will tail that bet. These are just my thoughts. How about you?

I haven't commented on the thread, but when I read through the whole conversation and knew that Drake is partnered with the casino where the bet was placed, it then built up that mixed feeling in me about whether or not the bet was actually a paid by a player bet or just part of his influencing allocation that he can bet with and with this amount in lose, indeed Drake and stake already made headlines which is part of the marketing deal between the two, because no sports bettor in their right sense will stake 615,000 dollars bet on a fighter he knows have no records of consistent winnings compared to the opponent records.

We can't confirm if it's a free bet but the fact that they are partners, that simply imply that both will benefit, no one will lose money. And also, since Drake has some losing streak, if the bets were free, then I think Stake are gains from the bettors who followed him, given he is a popular personality.

They hyped it too much like concluding it was really Drake's money was at stake, and the credibility can't be question since he is a multi millionaire, or billionaire as one poster stated.

Drake thought Francis Ngannou would win but Anthony Joshua knocked out Ngannou in the second round of the match of the heavyweight showdown in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

Drake lost $615000.

https://www.thecable.ng/drake-loses-615k-bet-on-joshua-ngannous-bout/amp?/drake-loses-615k-bet-on-joshua-ngannous-bout

Too bad, I think everyone here as well thought that Francis Ngannou will pull an upset win against the Brit. But Joshua didn't want to happen and as if this is a tailor fight for him to win in that dominant fashion. Not the first time that he have heard Drake bet on a fight or sports and losses big money,

So the Drake curse continues...

Drake has lots of money and these loses are just nothing to him, the guy stakes really high and loses really well, looks like gambling isn't actually his calling or he's unlucky with the stakes, most times he bets on the wrong selection and loses big. It doesn't affect him in any way cos he makes much more than those in hours. In my country currency, $615k its approximately #981 million, this.

Drake really loses serious funds in gambling and the consistency makes me wonder if stake.com casted a spell on him to be enriching themselves at intervals. Sometimes I think its better for him to stop gambling if I was him since its clearly not working out for him. but its entirely his decision to take.

This loses cant be nothing for him, because if half a million is nothing, he can throw that amount out of the window weekly and that would create even more hype around him, but he did not act like that. Google says that his net worth is 260 millions. Right now he has lost roughly 1/500 of all his money. That is actually a hit on his balance. If we take into account that few times a year he losses large amount, roughly a million per year as a minimum, and the fact that music royalties does not bring him hundred millions and still has to perform or make ads, then this $615k loss is something for him.

In short, no matter how big his net worth is, if he keeps on losing that kind of money in gambling, then he will come to an end wherein there will be no left in his money. Remember, money is finite. Imagine if Drake keeps on losing even just a month with that amount of money; after a few years, he will be dried up. The worst is if he is losing that kind of money frequently.

We can't understand many popular people; instead of focusing on investment, they will choose to throw and waste their money on gambling, which will result in their downfall. I'm not saying that Drake will lose his fortune, but the thing is, if he keeps on doing what he does, then there will be a point in his life where he will not notice that he doesn't have anything else; the money is such a waste. If I were him, I would make my money grow in investment.

I still remember that time drake spent $1m to orphanages and he was praise for the music he sang as God plan, one of the best music I love back then but today it's sad to see that the guy has turned to a gambler to waste money like he is the only person gambling. He does this many times especially when it's an event that is very popular, the same thing he did when France played against Argentina in the last world cup and he lost.

Boxing doesn't have credibility like before again, things are now stage and the organizers do it in the best way it can attract money. If AJ should have lose that match, a lot of then will lose money that day but the elite bets on who they want to and arrange it the way they want. Don't be surprised if you see another fight of Ngannou and Anthony next time and Ngannou will be allowed to win.

Drake does have tons of money and we do all know that. It is really just that people cant really be that able to fathom on how much Drake could really be that willingly to lose with those bets.
Some say about Drake curse and make out those counterbets if they do have the chance but well i cant blame them on having that kind of approach on which we do consider out that
whenever he do make out some bets then it would be having those notable loses but well we dont know on what bets he had won up big but pretty sure it would really be broadcasted whenever
he do make out huge loses or wins and this is always just for some exposure and we do know on whom would be able to benefit it out. lol.

We cant really be able to deny that when it comes to these wins/loses then it would really be by means of marketing. Even if he lost then he might be that doing its job
to market something.If this one is really just his own real bet from his own money then these would really be just peanuts.

so much for trusting Ngaannou to deliver. i am disappointed too since i was betting for Franc to win. but $615k is just a huge amount of money. i wouldn't want to replay to watch again because it hurts. i and banking for Francis to make it in boxing and be a champ. it would be a good story of his life. anyway, hope he will fight again.

at least thinking about Drake's loss compared to mine makes me think i'm not the worst gambler.

Personally I think most people who lost in the bet failed to understand that Francis and AJ is not in the same level, like how would they expect Francis to become a champion in a fight that he's just getting the experience of maybe they thought that MMA is UFC not knowing that it's a different fight all together, as for drake who lost such huge amount, it's unfortunate that he saw AJ as the underdog because of Francis performance in the last fight but its all good for him that he lost as AJ used his experience to drop Francis in the second round. For your loss, neither you nor drake is the worst gambler because you didn't gamble with everything you have did you. Francis won the fight with his mouth because before the game he was making a lot of noise that was why a lot of people believed that he could win but after watching the fight I think Francis has a long way to go in his training.

That is what I mean when you should bet money on a game, on a sport, it is always good to know a lot about the sport, because I can think that someone who is just gaining experience has a better chance of winning because it is more young, and that is something that can influence. but things in this sport are different, apparently experience outweighs the audacity of any boxer who has many possibilities of being better, either because he is young or because he is an athlete who has all his senses much newer, less used. .

I would have bet on the one that Drake lost, and I would have lost, only that Drake bet a lot more money and that money is something that can make the difference for any bettor, I cannot bet an amount like that, because I have never had an amount like that, It is far outside my expectations.

This is a very huge amount of money that not everyone can place a bet with it. Drake is known for putting some of money when betting because of the high returns he stands to get if the bet go well for him. I am not a fan of boxing that much but for many people to have placed this bet on Ngannou to win, then it must have been a big win for Joshua to eliminate him from the second round of the fight. Drake is a risk taker and he is a celebrity that has much on him, so he won't feel the loss he has encountered in this fight.

Drake isn't the only one that lost that bet. I think most of us did. It was more wishful thinking than anything else for me personally, as I really like Ngannou and wanted to see him crossover to a different sport and beat the best of the best. After the Fury fight I thought he'd be able to give Joshua a run for his money, but it seems like maybe more boxing training left him as a less dangerous fighter. I can't lie, he looked really bad in this last fight. It somewhat makes Fury look like a worse fighter as well that he got knocked down by Ngannou and probably should have lost their fight.

There are many other celebrities apart from drake that are known for staking huge bets. But my question is that did he flaunt his bet online before the match between Anthony Joshua and Ngannou because i know that if he did announce his bet publicly, then certainly a lot of people must have also ran into losses as well, you know some persons like following Celebrities and influential people so in a situation like this you see so many people also trying to take same risk he took without knowing that these celebrities has several sources that generates income for them and even if they lose bets like this they wouldn't feel it at all unlike some folks that will follow him and end up losing their money when they don't have many source of income.

‘God’s Plan’ apparently was not destined to come true. I honestly don’t understand why super stars of this level would make these bets. Is it really all for the sake of adrenaline, I almost don’t believe it. It probably all comes down to an advertisement for the bookmaker where he made this stunning bet. In addition, they began to publish about him more often in news feeds. He probably knew about this, that they would talk and write about it in any case, regardless of loss or win. Because any headline will ring loudly. And the rest of the bookmakers began to wonder why they didn’t offer him to do this earlier in their establishment to get such advertising.

Still, this is a lot of money, ordinary players can’t wrap their heads around it, and while they think or laugh at Drake, he will earn this amount by performing at a private party, spending one evening on it.

He will also earn from betting, if that was sponsored by a specific casino, they might have an agreement and that betslip might not be true. Drake has partnered with stake, so that means he is not betting to beat stake but betting to gain the attention of the people to sign up on the casino. It's just probably a marketing strategy, we should not take it seriously like he really loss that big amount of money.

You might be right on this, that Drake is only marketing for stake with his huge bets. From my own point of view, I don't see it like that, because we have seen several fights that Drake bets on, and I will say that assuming Drake won the bet, you will not sound like this. Gambling is in Drake and he loves Gambling.

The amount that to many of us is a big amount, might just be an amount that Drake can afford to lose, since we know that he is a billionaire, and he gats investments and skills that pays him constantly. If I was Drake, I will always bet against my instinct in a fight because he is always betting on the losers most time, and I don't know what confidence he have in them

In a networth situation where he worths 250 million, that basically means that's his daily change. One day he could wake up being a million dollars richer by getting some payment from some of the deal that he did. This could could make that from a single concert as well, he is capable of holding a huge event at some big place, like maybe Las Vegas, make a deal with a casino, or any other place really, and have thousands of people there, or better yet these people make the most money when they do a whole tour.

Look at Taylor Swift, she did a whole tour with like 150+ places which resulted with over a billion dollars in income, not saying Drake would make the same, but imagine doing 150+ concerts, even Drake would be able to make tens of millions easily, just pure profit, revenue wise he could make hundreds of millions.

Well, this is normal for Drake to bet such huge amounts. He will get it back in no time.
I think the hype about Francis Ngannou was too much after his fight against Tyson Fury. Yes he defended well against Fury and he even knocked him down but the game was too much on the safety because Fury is also being careful. Now, it's different when it's Joshua, he will definitely attack.

Dana White has something to say about the Ngannou fight.
https://bleacherreport.com/articles/10112422-dana-white-rips-ex-ufc-star-francis-ngannou-after-knockout-in-anthony-joshua-fight

Quote

"I saw it on social media," UFC president Dana White said about the knockout, per MMA Fighting's Damon Martin. "Going into the Fury fight, if Fury trained for the fight and didn't show up and look like he ate Tyson Fury, that's probably the way that fight would have ended, too."

"You know how I feel about crossovers into boxing," White added. "That's how they end. Just like that."

I don't think Francis will just give it up after that KO. But that will give him a good idea of how the heavyweights are fighting and how strong their punches are so he must keep his guard up. He may need to strengthen his chin too.
I never made a bet for this crossover match, it's all entertainment so it's not the match that I am looking for to be excited about.
