Drake 8s gradually losing too much as he recently lose another huge amount and now this one again  any ways he is a Canadian musicians with alot of influencing jobs for various brands whose among them are casinos and sport bookies like stake which may be the major sourch of his gambling funding, so he can bet in any wrong direction he wishnsince he can easily choose Frances over Anthony Joshua who is multiple time title holder, what was he thinking in Nghe first place, because even me who is not an addicted follower of those matches know the capacity of Anthony Jousha so how much more drake who is a streamer with high experience and interest in the game.

Drake can loss this amount without any doubt... this practically does not affect his net worth in any way.
and much probably there are also some agreements with stake....

However, I find these "heavy" bets something un-educational/sad to show.
Watching a wealthy person spending so much money that would change a person's life isn't the best to see.
Wonder how the rich waste such money on gambling and at the end of the day, they're not affected, unlike the average gambler that would gamble with small amount and end up losing, which will drained his accounts. Making such losses doesn't affect him because there's more he's capable of placing, trust me he's not giving because he's a crucial gambler that always shoot higher on achieving his targets. The Canadian rap musician is popularly known for gambling substantial amount on matches and he's acquainted with all the significant sectors of sports.

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.

Why is Drake always having the fever of loss? With this recent loss, I have come to a conclusion that anytime Drake bet on anything, I will do the opposite of what he played because he always loss. Somebody should advice him with the way he's playing, he seems addicted and the addiction is not yielding any good results publicly except if u had other games he bets and don't show them to the public but who knows if that one's has been losses too.

However, can we take some minutes to review how this game ended? That game looks stage, the knockout was too obvious and Ngannou wasn't protecting his face from most of the KO tackles that was coming from AJ, what does he get from this if he couldn't win Anthony Joshua and and Tyson Fury, I'm not seeing the use of his body huge, maybe he should try another career.

$615k is an outrageous amount to spend on a bet. We also have to consider the networth of the gambler, Drake is extremely rich and can afford to risk that much money. I always hear Drake’s name come up when there are big matches like these, whether it’s the World Cup, UFC fights, or Boxing, the rapper seems to be interested in placing large bets on these events. I can’t tell if he’s doing it for the publicity and lifestyle of being a rich and famous rap star or if he’s really into these sports.

obviously drake is not a lover or likes to watch boxing matches. because obviously antony joshua is more favored to win this match. and place a crazy bet of more than 600k dollars. surely a wealthy person throws away that much money so easily. but unfortunately before placing a bet he did not first analyze the strength of the two boxers so that he lost easily 600k dollars just disappeared.

Drake is a perfect example of a rich gambler and some would say that's he is addicted but for him I think this thought can be excused because even that money  is not close to his earning as ten percent and that's why you can't call him gambling addict and one thing, he doesn't gambler on a steady if not it I know losing that kind of funds will definitely affect him even if he is mega super star. Some of these artist just feel the need to gamble and lose out their plenty just for the purpose of fun.

Wow, the truth is that it is a very high amount of money, I don't know how someone can bet so much, if I bet only 5 usd or 10 usd and if I lose it I feel bad, now I bet money like Drake would already have a heart attack, although let's see, Drake is practically an influencer, from what I understand, a person like this earns a lot of money, of course I am not discrediting the fact that what he lost was a small thing, but in reality it is a lot, this is another reason to verify that Predictions in Sports do not Often turn out They are favorable to the fact that they may be what we think , the technical part sometimes fails, it could be that the boxer went something wrong, we don't know what happened, but the truth is that these things happen in boxing, you can have all the preparation possible, the best The hardest but extraordinary training can happen, rarely , but it happens and the result is disastrous for Drake.

I think this money is a lot for anyone, but as they Said before, Drake has many sponsors, he is an influencer and moves masses, this for him is a big but acceptable loss for the Pace of life he leads, this is how the time goes by with Adesanya had a loss that I would call millionaire , but he still recovers and continues betting.

The match really created an impression of "All hype" towards Ngannou. Many people had high hopes from him in this match but it seems that boxing is too much for him especially to face an experienced and dominant fighter which is Joshua. But regarding with Drake's loss, it is somewhat a 'normal' day on his end and to his fans. He have lost multiple times,if not close to this amount, even higher. It is indeed a huge amount to majority of people especially average salary earners but if we would look at his case deeply, he can simply afford it. He's earning tha much that this loss of him won't hurt him financially as much as it should be on our perspective. Also, this is how gambling works. He won't also bet an amount that would crash his bank, assuming that he won't.

And if we would elaborate this, his $615k might be a $500 loss on my end, that it would be hurting for a month but eventually you'd get over it, but still this doesn't promote certainty. He might have a larger risk appetite but that's on his end and I have nothing to do with it. I will just focus on my betting behavior to not engage an amount that will leave me with nothing.

Drake offers a million dollars for a spin of roulette? I thought some professional players would have to accept a maximum of $350,000. Surely for Drake, this is just a "mosquito"!

It's easy to understand, with someone as famous as Drake, winning and losing can be very confusing, it's mostly fun. A huge bet like this is like "playing for fun", playing with luck with the whole world to see. Who knows, if it gets broadcast all over social networks, it will be even "cooler", right?

But "it's easy to fall when you're tall". If you win, it's explosive, if you lose, it becomes a meme, a show that makes people laugh. Maintaining an "undefeated" image in front of people is also a lot of pressure!

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...

He loves betting on the underdog and probably fine with losing a lot of money (maybe fore us).

Based on what I read...

Quote
Drake has a net worth of $250 million according to Celebrity Net Worth.

So I would say that there's nothing so alarming with his bets as surely he can afford to lose what he bet so far. Also, it's just his losses were publicized, how about his wins? Drake continues to make money and probably gambling is just his way of spending money, as long as he has no gambling addiction, everything should be considered as normal.

God is great
Many people  thought that Francis would be the one to win the game because of his appearance and the confidence he showed to people concerning the game. Before the game looking at Anthony Joshua it was as if he looks nervous and even the last game he lost to the Mexican guy made many people to look less of him . Anthony Joshua was so quiet about the fight  but it was a huge surprise to see that Anthony Joshua was able to defeat Francis ngannou without any stress. For those who bet the game on Anthony Joshua to win the game are so lucky to win, that means they so much believe in Anthony Joshua.

That's gamble for you, as a gambler you should be expecting two things either you lose or you win, though none of these things I mentioned is guaranteed but either if them is bound to happen, though no matter how rich drake is, if a bettor loses in his or her bet it is not an easy thing, but I know for sure that this is not his first time of losing bet but this may be the first time his lost is being announced, gamblers absolved shock more than anyone so shit happens.
Drake has been winning so that's gambling for you, you don't expect fortunes all the time sometimes you lose too so that you will understand that it is gambling not an investment.

We all know on how Drake is notoriously famous with these kinds of high roll bets. Well with that amount of money that he earns through his music, businesses and other ventures, I am pretty sure that $615,000 is nothing to him or at least a relatively low amount of money for him.

Despite the situation, I do feel bad that he has lost so much money on several bets that he made on sports. For example:

  • Drake made a bet of $400,000 when he betted that Jake Paul would knock Tommy Fury on their match- he lost that bet;
  • During the world cup final, Drake betted $1,000,000 hoping that Argentina would beat France- he lost that bet again;
  • On the UFC, Drake also betted $275,000 hoping that Masvidal would beat Covington- he again lost that bet;1
..... and so on.

Though that may be the case, there were also some instances were he also won his bets and he almost wagered every game on Stake. It just sucks to lose this amount of money in a short amount of time. Makes you think that people are willing to stake this hundreds to millions of dollars on sports betting.

After all Drake is not dumb, because when you look at his position as an artist and how many sources gaining money he has, his biggest bets won’t even effect his daily spendings, $615k loss is nothing to him compared to us as simple gamblers. It’s important to not follow anyone’s bettings choices or the amount of money you put on a bet just because you saw drake or any famous gambler sharing his bet with a large amount.

If you see drake over all bets a month or two before, we surely going to see huge wins as well. Talking about the fight between Joshua and Ngannou which was a different experience and a chance for gamblers to take a part and prove their knowledge by gambling on their favorite fighter, however this is a different experience when the fighter changed his sport and style of fighting, personally I wouldn’t risk that much of money on something not certain of.

There are also many gamblers who lost some amount of money betting on Francis to win the fight because the Bookmakers considered him the underdog in the fight and give him more odds to win, and he looked like the best choice to win the fight going into the fights judging from his very fierce look.
Regarding Drake, Obviously this is just a minimal loss since I watch him losing million dollar on a single round bet on his roulette live games before.
Until the day he bets with like $20 million, and then loses, I will not see all this amount of money he is losing now as something he cannot afford to lose.

Well everyone have high hopes that Ngannou will really win because he gives a solid fight against Tyson Fury which is the top of their division.

This is the difference between training with Tyson and not since he is facing an experienced boxer which is not his original sports. I believe he becomes over confident that he can dominate anyone with sheer strength due to his successful debut with gypsy king.

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

Lol... But drake isn't a worst gambler himself, he is probably in an outing for the weekend and enjoying himself with friends because he is worth the money that he is using to bet and betting as he can afford as fun. That is the difference with the wealthy betting and probably those who gamble only for the profit and when they don't succeed, they either begin to ask for crowdfunding to replace the money that they have used to bet. However, Ngannou disappointed many of his supporters but I never thought Joshua would give in that easy, alas he won.

Haha, so what do you do when you lose? Grin

He is just one of us. I can't believe it from the start, I was trying to enjoy the fight so after round 1 I sat in front of the TV hoping for Ngannou's win. Its a good thing that the error Maximum Limit pops every time I bet bigger than usual.
You can not compare Anthony Joshua to Francis Ngannou because Francis Ngannou has just started boxing starting with Fury. Because of his performance with Fury was the reason people thought Anthony Joshua would lose to him, but you people forgot that Anthony Joshua has been a boxer since many years ago while Francis Ngannou was not. Anthony Joshua has more boxing experience.
Anthony sure has alot of boxing experience because he knocked out Francis with a wonderful right hand punch that sent him down gasping for Oxygen.
I would have placed my bet on Francis because he has more current wins as compared to his counter part who has lost more than once on separate occasions.
It was a really interesting match and we await who Anthony gets to fight next. I hope it's a knockout too.

Drake could easily shoulder this loss. That man is worth hundreds of millions, and there is a high possibility that that bet is sponsored by Stake to invite other sports bettors to bet on the bout. Drake betting on something is already a good publicity to Stake regardless of whether they pay him to bet or not. Just another day in the office, I'd say. He can get that $600k in a few shows and gigs so he can count that as his 'leisure expenses' any day.

$600k+ is nothing if we do speak about loses.
Lets check this one out;

Total Wins: CA$106.3 million ($79.1 million)
Total Losses: CA$46.1 million ($34.2 million)

Source

Those numbers are really that could make you drool up on how much have won and lost and based up on those numbers then it do clearly shows
that he's still that on positive. So these kind of puny loses wont really be affecting him in the end of the day.
This is why its called gambling or betting and there would really be no assurance that you would really be able to have that sure win thing.
Whether he's been funded (unlikely) on the time that he do made out some bets or coming from his own personal money then no one really knows
but in general on which we do know that Drake is a heavy gambler.
