But I'm sure that Drake will get this amount and even more in the next coming bet he will be having so this is not that big thing for this super famous celebrity .
He can get that easily with his one tweet. I don't know how much he is charging for each post or tweet but that's basically a normal rate for personalities like him.

The more famous celebrities are even charging a million dollar for just one tweet of advertisement and that's why if it's just about getting the amount back.

This is easy money for him and he won't gamble that much if he knows he can't take it back with whatever he's had for his sources.

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 decoy so that some bettors will tail that bet. These are just my thoughts. How about you?
They have been partners for years already and it could be true that maybe it is Stake money for promotion. Or Drake getting a cut if ever he won, so there's a lot of speculation from behind as Drake is known to be a big bettor. It's not that Drake cannot afford to bet with that kind of money, but he has been doing this for years when he got under the Stake banner and it's hard to think that a big whale was able to sustain this kind of bet. He also stream roullette with huge bet as well like every week and then give some around $20k as a raffle for his fans. Just bad if someone fall for the curse of Drake and follow his bet because you are going to lost big money already.

Drake is known for this kind of attitude in gambling as he have been betting huge amount if he likes the fight/game .

But this is one sudden loss because Ngannou is the favorite in this bout to be beating Anthony Joshua but the opposite thing happened .

But I'm sure that Drake will get this amount and even more in the next coming bet he will be having so this is not that big thing for this super famous celebrity .

it's actually funny how he got carried away with Frances Ngannou's cheap talks on social media against AJs furious calmness that needs to be studied. Well, it's just an unlucky day for the legend and in the past he has made stakes like this which he has won some and lost out in others and I feels it wouldn't be a big deal for him.

This should send a strong message to those that concluded that Anthony Joshua was afraid of Frances due to his calm and reserved nature prior to the fight that boxing isn't done with mouth. After your rants and talking and showoffs, you will get to the ring to prove those bunch of shots you've been thrashing out and it's just sad he couldn't take it up to the third round. Like, I knew AJ was going to thrust him big time in the fight but kicking his ass within such space of time was a totally definaion of "we are damn not on the same level, bro.

With such regularity of loosing large bets on big sports events, I might even think of placing the opposite bet Drake does. This looks like a pattern already. Look what Drakes bets on and do different.

I was serious when I have asked if someone remember that Drake has ever won big in gambling. It is either he is very unlucky, or media only stress attention his losses, because people love to see when rich and famous people fail.
So on how you would really be able to follow Drakes bet? Usually those big bets would really be the ones be considered or would be news out or would really be that broadcasted but to those smaller ones then it would be
hard to follow on. Making counter bets on what Drake is betting on? Well this is something that good to consider out.  Grin

We've seen his big loses which had been posted into this forum or on media on which it is really something that we do thought too that it was a sure win.
If we do tend to follow his bets then i dont really know if it would be that possible.Unless if has some streams and make or give those kind of tips
on where he would really be putting up his bets.

This was more like an accidental idea to do, but did not he post in his social media his large bets to show off? We get it from the news because he lose and media wants to get attention with that. But I think if we follow his instagram, we might get some pictures of where he is, who are around him and etc. That might be little hints of what kind of bet he has made. Or he might even post a betslip himself. I mean it is not like he post a picture after the event with idea «look how much I have lost».

One day Drake will accidentally stumble into a winning long shot bet and earn his money back. Actually, I don’t think he is really losing this much money. He is paid to endorse the casino and might not be playing with his own money. Unless he has a severe gambling addiction, it’s no big deal to make these kind of bets because what he makes for promoting the casino is enough to cover his losses even if they were out of pocket.

Peanuts to Drake.  He is a known high rolling gambler.  I was shocked too how well Joshua fought considering Ngannou's first professional boxing match went.  Don't kmwo if he had an off night or Joshua had a great night.  Either way that's like noelrmal people losing $100 on the match lol.

Yes, he probably got some of the money back, but I don't think we'll ever know because it brings more attention when someone wins or loses big. If he happened to lose the casino's money many people would feel like it was all fake.
Let's imagine for a moment that I borrow your bitcoin and sell it to you, then I tell everything how much money I made and to prove it sign a message with your address, but in reality I just give it back to you. How is that different from what Drake and Stake are doing?

I have heard the news that since Drake has an affiliation with Stake, this news might just be a publicity strategy. It is a promotional tool where Drake uses his publicity to attract customers to Stake. But this loss is small compared to the worth of the musician. I think he can afford to lose such an amount that is what he comfortably staked it. This is not the first time Drake is engaging in such a bet, there are also times that he wins. The moral of this story is to always gamble according to our size. We should compare ourselves with Drake. I have heard people say that it is not bad to stake with large funds after all Drake lost a fortune. The question should be 'Are you as wealthy as these celebrities?'

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.
It might not be a bad marketing strategy, but I see it as deceptive. Many people see Drake as a role model, which might propel them to gamble recklessly. Advertisements should be built on truth and not blue lies.

That’s just kind of massive, but am not shocked by the news, we know how drake have been losing huge amount of money on gambling, so this is another one, I don’t think the most lost is going to have any serious effect on him, because am sure he will have won some huge amount of money which nobody will know about, people only talk whenever he loses huge amounts of money, and we know drake is having multiple sources of income where he is making good amounts of money, don’t be surprise that when their is another fight, the amount he will gamble with will be more than the one which he lost recently, so when people like this lose, it doesn’t have much impact on them.

You might as well be lucky to win when you get on the opposite team that he placed his bet on, or you might also be unlucky if that very match turns out to be his lucky game too. 
 
There are also a few matches that he has been able to win out of when he places a big amount on them, but it seems like the media seems to use his big name and personality to make the once's he loses a trend; bad news seems to spread faster than the good ones that they are supposed to join him and celebrate.
 
I remember his last big win, which was publicised, and the title was Drake, which seems to have been lifted as a title of such nature to draw people's attention to the post.

There is no point feeling bad for Drake because he is rich and can afford to lose this amount without feeming any form of agitation. I might not know his worth but I do believe that the amount he lost is something he will not cry over.

Many people were actually thinking Anthony Joshua will lose the match for reasons that are not too clear to me.. However, Joshua have proven to them that he is still the champion that he is. He proved it in the match as he was fierce, direct and ruthless. It was an interesting match anyway.
For someone who do able to beat up Fury then it would be normal that they would be assuming that beating up Joshua wouldnt really be that hard but we've seen the different outcome on here.  Cheesy

As for loses of Drake then this $600k is nothing.We've seen several bets he made which is more than with this. He wont really be making up such huge bets if he cant be able to afford.
It is really just that too amazing to see that someone could make up that huge bet but considering on Drake net worth and all the money that he do earns on different sources
then these are just mere amounts. He could be able to patch it up without any hardship.

Its his money then no matter how big he would be spending out then its none of our business. lol

Remember that placing bet only comes with two opposite side in which any of the one we take will determine whether we are going to win or loose, he made his own choice, that would have been the same he could have made and win, but the fate made him loose the bet because it wasn't his time yet for the luck, we either win or loose and someone like Drake have the money to recover from the loss and get over it.

I was serious when I have asked if someone remember that Drake has ever won big in gambling. It is either he is very unlucky, or media only stress attention his losses, because people love to see when rich and famous people fail.

You're right, most times, the media emphasizes on the lost and the reason being a celebrity will draw more attention to his incident, its then becomes the talk of the town and every other media news take it up as well as their trending news for discussions, people loss big amount and we don't hear about them except if a certain crucial condition is being attached to their experience in winning or loosing big

only those who used what they can't afford to lose to gamble are the one who makes noise over every little lost just as me.
For example, when a gambler loses an amount he can afford to lose there is no need complaining about it openly because it is something they are used to and have prepared for mentally before it happened.

You are correct before anyone goes into gambling they should be prepared about gambling like the lost and how much they could be able to lose to reduce much worrying whenever the games didn't go as they planned, let say for instance drake has already been used to losing money and as well winning money more often than someone who can't lose huge money and whenever it happens they go out complaining about what they have lost without knowing that while gambling they will only gamble with what they can afford to lose.
I don't know why we are discussing about this things,  because we already know who Drake is and his amount of wealth and how influencing he person have been,  so for such a person,  losing such an amount is not a big deal for him and at that he should be fine,  since many times,  he have won higher amount than what he lost without the news carrying it,  so good luck to him in his next bets because surely there will be more.

But then also I believe that Drake have followed the odds if not how can he bet anything against the great Anthony Joshua who is a title holder in the industry.

losing is one of the things we need to expect in gambling, and we don't have to be surprised about it. There are many loses and winnings coming so all we have to keep doing to to bet and try as much to keep making money. We don't have to be disappointed or change our mindset because of such lose because I know he always win bets that is why he would end up staying away from gambling. Gambling is fun if we know how to find our way to getting luck to win bets. Everything we do is to predict the outcome and we can be very lucky to keep winning based on our predictions and the kind of outcome we expected.

In my opinion, it could be a mixture of both the media giving more attention to Drake's losses than his victories and also he may be more unlucky than the average super start music producer/musician out there.
I personally do not have anything against Drake or his fans, but seeing someone like him to lose money in this way is kind of like a reminder than within the wall of the casino, we all are equality subjected to the randomness of the luck and the entropy of the game, you know.
Dices, do not care about your social status, neither do the Plinko ball.

Drake losses could actually play in his favor, people are more likely to feel empathy for someone to lose money than someone who wins and brags about it non stop in their faces. If somehow, he manages to act humble enough while facing those losses, he may end up catching the attention of more people who were previously unaware of his music and projects. Just my two satoshis.

It is just like knowing who will win or lose by looking at Drake's betslip. I know this is a consipiracy theory but because he is so loud about it, and the multiple occurrences people think it is real. There were so many celebrities who would have bet on the match but didn't say a word about it. On a light note, someone should try this out and see if it truly works.
  One thing we don't get is that Drake is not seeing him self like someone who's staking too high because he has the money and has more that me and you can ever imagined.

If you watched Drake's "God's Plan" video, you'll know that musical artists have a ton of money and they don't just get it through one means. They have multiple means of getting money. Whatever amount of money Drake spends on betting is way minimal compared to the one he earn when he losses.
