Drake is running entire businesses and can write off losses against profits, its never simple with anyone with a large amount of success.  I bet his main deal is the publicity and I read he was doing a charity sponsorship and things like that, I cant see he has giant regrets over a bet.   Much as I wish I could measure my own bets alongside Drake its not in the same universe, he will be fine no matter what & I need to be careful a little and for sure it was sensible to place at least two bets with the main safe one being on Logan straight win no conditions.

When you're earning someone's retirement funds every weekend you're bound to be a little belligerent when you're gambling, and in his case it's not like the money's ever going to stop cause one way or another people will listen to his songs and albums again and again, and he's too big to fail in the industry he's in too so he's not scared of anything at all. But that doesn't make his gambling addiction problem any less scary. But yeah the Drake's Curse, he's been like that ever since lol Paddy was a really strong fighter back then but when he started betting on the man he started losing drive and popularity. Basically, take Drake's bets at face value and always bet on whoever he's not betting lol.
Apart from Drake making money from his music,  he os also an ambassador with a notable casino and also I big roller and have hard several records of winning in the past and as we all know that gambling is filled with ups and downs so Drake will still be fine,  and possibility are that he may have recovered that loses from his subsequent games that may not be mentioned to the public,  why this loses made so much news is because he lost the bet and with higher amount staked with then et and what lead to that is the confident that he had in his selected fighter.

If not,  ordinarily he may not have lost that amount if it is that he never trusted the fighter to win the fight,  but then also,  this is gambling,  one needs to be smart enough to make the right choice at all times and not rely so much on previous performances to the point of staking an unbearably high amount.

do remember that drake is also stake's ambassador. so the reason why he's also posting those big bets and at the same time promoting the site. we don't know the arrangements with stake but high likely that they are in the win-win situation here. and such amount is no big deal for drake, we have seen much bigger amount of money on his bets before. and take note that those bets were the ones posted on his social media. what more about other bets that public don't know about?

There is not much of a point to worry about Drake, while the amount he lost will be a disaster for us, for him this is not really too much of a problem, and he can probably earn that money back by featuring in an ad or by taking advantage of some other opportunity that may come to him, still, the rest of gamblers out there should do well to not imitate his example, because if they tried there is no doubt they could sustain some heavy losses, which will be way more difficult for them to bounce back from.
Yeah,  the big celebs have a lot of cash to throw around and they are not at the level at which we are right now I can only imagine how much I will be willing to stake when I make so much money as the world's richest,  I believe money and fortune comes to those who are destined for it,  and I am one of those few who are selected Drake may have done what ks out of the ordinary right now, but believe you me others also who are none celeb le celeb are doing similar huge stakes.

You know when it comes to gambling,  the amount you stake is in the proportion of four financial values and stands,  this is why quite several times we have seen how some of those celebrities fall into this kind of trap of not having the practice of limit control no matter the amount of cash at your disposal

I would like to add something.
If part of the Drake's curse is to become a celebrity and getting sponsorships from the biggest crypto casino in the market, then I would not mind to have a curse like that.  Wink

I would not even mind if my luck starts to eat away when comes to gambling and sportbetting, as long as the sponsor keep coming and continue to get contracts within the industry.
What about you? Would you like to be cursed like Drake, who can burn millions of dollars and not even flinch about it?

Even if half the money comes for the casino as sponsor, I would sleep tight at night with such "bad luck"  Tongue

That must be some curse if the recipient keeps on living the good life while making even more money. Is there a waiting list somewhere? Sign me up for some of Drakes sweet sweet curse. haha
Asides his endorsement deal, he still has enough money of his own to do whatever he pleases and can still afford not to lose any sleep over it if/when he losses any of his high stake bets.

Perhaps, the curse doesn’t allow one who’s cursed ever run out of money irrespective of how much is spent and lost in high stake bets.

Though, I must admit that knowing myself. Even if I was in a position like Drake's, causing a sudden change in my life. I would still feel bad for wagering and losing so much money. It would take me months to get used to it, because as a new rich, I would still be aware of the magnitude of the money I would be losing and the amounts good things which could have been done with it.   Sad

That is why there are so many differences between the average millionaires and those who become millionaires because of winning the lottery or some inheritance.
One is more humble if one knows where money comes from.

Anyways, whether he is cursed or not. Let us see if Drake can eventually get some bets right and surprise us with some sweet wins.

Rapper Drake lost $850,000 on Logan Paul's fight with Dillon Danis - despite backing the right man to win. Paul took on Danis over six rounds last night alongside KSI's defeat by Tommy Fury in Manchester. Paul dominated the first five rounds before Danis was disqualified in the final session for attempting to choke out his rival. Paul was declared the winner - but not by knock out as Drake had predicted. The rapper, who is seen as something of a curse given his poor gambling record, had staked $850,000 (£700,000) on Paul to win by stoppage and would have collected $1.3million (£1m) had he been successful.

The Drake's Curse.

He lost on the right man. We have experienced losses but not as bad as this...this is just terrible.

What do the gambling folks have to say about this?

Not a bad loss, it's gambling after all. You win some, you lose some that's just how gambling works. If he happens to win his bet would that be terrible?
IMO, most gamblers has poor gambling records though. I bet most of us has lost more money than we win.
I could only say that it's a terrible loss if someone has to take a loan just to place a bet and lost it eventually, that is a prime example of a terrible loss. But as for Drake, $850k isn't a big deal as he owns a lot of money. If I'm as wealthy as Drake I could've done the same thing, bet on the most risky but high reward odds since money doesn't bother me at all so why not maximize the profitability chances.
Not shocking or surprising that people would really be always that focusing that much on the cons and not on the positive side. What if the bet did end up on a win? For sure people would really just simply just say "okay" and simply move on on which it would really be totally different on the time that we do see the opposite things like losing up a particular bet specially on a significant amount.
Its not a curse but rather it is really just that a simple system that on how gambling works, it is really just that people do really give out that kind of emphasis on the time that they would be losing such bet.If we are just simply talking with some random gambler then it wont really be taking so much attention unlike if we do speak about celebrities which are really that known or
really that popular. We arent really that blind on how Drake make out bets on which it is really just that everytime this dude make out bets then it is really that being showing
those tons of zeroes on each bet which it turns out to be that his standard or simply shows that on how heavy gambler he is.

Nothing much to say than he should take heart and embrace his fate, this is not his first time of loosing neither of winning big, we also have a number of the other celebrities also who are fanatic gamblers like Michael Jordan, 50cent and many more, when they loose huge amount of money, i don't think it really pains them as we thought because they were already used to it and have enough to recover from because this are lifetime gamblers not minding taking the highest order risk while gambling.

There are not a lot of successful gamblers who consistent make profit and everybody who gambles will have losses and wins. Drake, with his crazy high bets, just gets a lot of attention from everybody and everyone has his opinion. To be honest, a lot of his recent high bets were all a loss though, so I wouldn't follow Drake his bets lol.

Or better yet, Drake can afford those high losses, so we should not follow his footsteps.  Grin
With his stake collab, I guess, he's also paid handsome amount of money.
And such loss, is no big deal for him. He can easily gets it back.
But for ordinary people like us, that's already like retirement savings or lifetime's savings, not even close.

Feel for him though,  but then it's gambling and he shouldn't take it seriously to the point of betting with an amount he can't afford to let go,  Drake has been one of the lucky celebrities to have enjoyed some endorsement from casinos.

Drake can afford to let go as his part of support to the casino if he had placed the bet online his loss is the casino's win reason why there is no sure bet,  even though he had all the statical support for his straight winning but then gambling results are unpredictable.
His was more or less very right as it was the best pick and by all indications, Logan would have won but sadly it turned out the way it dis, every day isn't a good day normally, drake has aswell won much from the casinos before now so it's very possible this could be one of his profits he made from the casino some time ago and he has got the means such that it wouldn't be any big deal to him he lost that amount to the casino.

He is worth much more than that and would probably recover that money soonest on another bet which he will place in the nearest future, as he has got the stats and all he needs to facilitate the accuracy of his bet. Do not gamble like him, always remember to stake what you can comfortably afford to loose, they which he staked by all indications is what he can afford to loose, so have that at the back of your mind before you make large stakes.
Well that is what makes it gambling anyway because if it becomes undoubtedly sure for Logan to win and he ends up winning it then means there be no essence to gamble on the game any more since we already know the winner even before the game begins,  but since gambling is an unpredictable event,  it doesn't make any difference whether or not Logan is a sure bet in the eyes of Drake or any other gamblers but then also we have to be aware that there is never a sure bet in gambling.

And the final outcome of the games is what determines the winners regardless of whether or not both fighters have a good record of past winnings

almost all the users here know who Drake is and how much he is worth and maybe everything has been discussed here and I just want to say a few opinions or maybe someone has already answered it but the most important thing here is whether he got the loss from his own money or was funded by any platform that the most important thing is that he does not lose all his wealth because the amount of money he currently has is very large and everything has been explained by several people here and yes he will not feel sorry because he is one the whale gamblers and I admire him.
So it wouldn't be a problem for us if we didn't know anything about the money used by Drake. We also don't know how much money Drake uses. Even if he is financed or uses his own money, that's okay and he wants to entertain us by showing us the amount of money so that we can be interested in watching the match and maybe we will also bet on the same match. He also still has more money, we don't know how much, and it seems he will continue to provide excitement for his fans and us.

It's still about how we see celebrities, according to Brucelee, they're humans and feel things too. And we may not know about how he manages his wealth. One thing I know of Drake is that he's doing great in music. Has top notch tracks in billboard. But his personal life is his problem. Where he grew, the relationship he had there and all, can make him do bad mistakes too. Remember he's human. He works hard just like any other person. The real story about it, I don't expect it to be all comedy. Drake is also losing to Stake. Unless stake agrees on giving him unlimited wager, which is impossible. The amount agreed to be his funds for gambling. May not be enough to satisfy Drake. Therefore, he'll still have some low key bets he places on Stake, with his funds. And only posts the one sponsored by Stake. To promote Stake. And most of the times, he loses on that too. Hence, he only gets his endorsement money in full. Other allowances can fluctuate according to the outcome of the game. Like I said, don't know his level of gambling habit. As it could be a determinant of what I said. One way he spends a lot and the other side he also earns a lot. He also works on how to save a lot. He'll definite not wager so much, because he has lots of money. But most times I used to see it as Drake's gambling moment. Whenever he posts a gambling slip on his page, isn't the only time he gambled. He may be participating in some low key gambling activities with visitors and close friends. It's what gives them joy. In a nutshell, It's possible he's making adjustments and also mainly posts bets sponsored by Stake. As an ambassador.
Drake has gained many things and wealth and can promote things well. That was why he could bet a lot of money, and whatever the outcome, he didn't seem sad at all. Maybe he already knows that that is the risk in gambling and he continues to gamble. And if he loses, he can accept it regardless of whether he uses money from sponsors or his own money. But if someone could think that spending that much money was not worth it, even if he were a rich man, he would not do it. So we also need to find out whether it was his personal money or money from sponsors and we can only guess.

Yes, the story we are not sure about, how true our predictions can be about Drake's gambling money. If he was funded by the casino or used his private funds. Although with what is on the floor, marketing has become very tricky. And people are getting used to different marketing techniques. Such that when they find one, they won't hesitate to point it out. As a brand ambassador of Stake, most of his moves would be questioned by fans and the gambling public. One, the wagered money can serve as a jackpot to many gamblers. Hence, it gets us intrigued, and we may not accept the fact that drake used his funds to play it. Because it looks so big in the eyes of gamblers. Yet we may not concern ourselves if the money is quite not huge in the eyes of drake. He's been doing this time to time. Aside the publicity he's getting from his huge money gambling. He's never complained about anything or answered any question whether the company is giving him the money to gamble. I've seen gambling influencers, using fabricated slips to deceive followers into believing they made in profits, or wagered such an amount. So big that people will see them as rich gamblers. As a Drake fan, I don't think he is posting fake screenshots. So, if the money is revolving between Stake and Drake, it's beyond our understanding to point out what's happening behind the scene. What gets us questioning is, that feeling of getting bordered when losing in betting. Often times, he's not gone public to show his bitterness of losing such an amount. As it should bother him at least. But, since, he is being covered by Stake's money in most extent. It may not be a torn in his flesh. No one can tell how long the deal would last. Until, then we can determine what was actually going on during his stay with Stake. Whether he'll continue playing with such an amount or not.
We don't need to think that Drake uses his own funds to bet big money. Moreover, we also know that Drake has a lot of money. So even though he bet big money, he still has a lot of money to use for various things. And even if Stake funds his gambling budget, that's also good for Drake because he can help promote Stake to many people. And from that match, people will know that Drake uses a lot of money to bet.

I don't think Drake complained about his loss or showed it to the public. Also, Drake doesn't feel anything about his loss, so we don't know how he really feels.

It's still about how we see celebrities, according to Brucelee, they're humans and feel things too. And we may not know about how he manages his wealth. One thing I know of Drake is that he's doing great in music. Has top notch tracks in billboard. But his personal life is his problem. Where he grew, the relationship he had there and all, can make him do bad mistakes too. Remember he's human. He works hard just like any other person. The real story about it, I don't expect it to be all comedy. Drake is also losing to Stake. Unless stake agrees on giving him unlimited wager, which is impossible. The amount agreed to be his funds for gambling. May not be enough to satisfy Drake. Therefore, he'll still have some low key bets he places on Stake, with his funds. And only posts the one sponsored by Stake. To promote Stake. And most of the times, he loses on that too. Hence, he only gets his endorsement money in full. Other allowances can fluctuate according to the outcome of the game. Like I said, don't know his level of gambling habit. As it could be a determinant of what I said. One way he spends a lot and the other side he also earns a lot. He also works on how to save a lot. He'll definite not wager so much, because he has lots of money. But most times I used to see it as Drake's gambling moment. Whenever he posts a gambling slip on his page, isn't the only time he gambled. He may be participating in some low key gambling activities with visitors and close friends. It's what gives them joy. In a nutshell, It's possible he's making adjustments and also mainly posts bets sponsored by Stake. As an ambassador.

Now, the big question is this.... Is Drake being funded by Stake.com to make these huge bets, because he is an affiliate and a brand ambassador for Stake.com.  Huh
Naturally people who place such big bets on their personal accounts never put such bets out for the world to see, but with Drake it's different and being the brand ambassador  this puts stake name on the gambling map and also shows the world they are able to handle big bets without a problem which is also  Drake doing his job as a marketing and sales personnel !
They do it for their safety which includes the following: they are afraid to get robbed, protects them from beggars, and lastly protects their reputation. Drake took a big risk there because his career might have been affected. He is one of the artist that until now known. That alone can earn him sufficient amounts already. Oh well, maybe greed is what leads him of accepting the offer.

@OP don't worry about him because he himself wouldn't care about it. We can just see it as a normal happening in the gambling world. There are people who are really suck at predicting things, and I don't think they are dumb enough to continue if their losses are already huge, but unless maybe if addiction already hits them.

Rapper Drake lost $850,000 on Logan Paul's fight with Dillon Danis - despite backing the right man to win. Paul took on Danis over six rounds last night alongside KSI's defeat by Tommy Fury in Manchester. Paul dominated the first five rounds before Danis was disqualified in the final session for attempting to choke out his rival. Paul was declared the winner - but not by knock out as Drake had predicted. The rapper, who is seen as something of a curse given his poor gambling record, had staked $850,000 (£700,000) on Paul to win by stoppage and would have collected $1.3million (£1m) had he been successful.

The Drake's Curse.

He lost on the right man. We have experienced losses but not as bad as this...this is just terrible.

What do the gambling folks have to say about this?

I get sickend seeing Drake always betting so much money on all these big fights/games.  Now don't get me wrong he earned that money and he deserves it...but I can't help but think that he probably doesn't donate all that much to charity each year and that doesn't sit right with me (maybe I'm wrong and hope that I am).

Not a big fan of Drake period.  There's a sub-reddit that's pretty funny called "DrakeTheType" which is all about ripping on him.  I highly suggest checking it out.

That said, wish I had the money to make bets like he does!
