Casino is using this big influencers to set a huge trap to gamblers by means of showing huge bets to attract them to copy him.
I think that's quite rational, however, apart from the wagering partnership that Drake has, it's clear that he has provided tremendous benefits in addition to being a promoter. When it comes to betting, we really have to be careful if we follow influencers. Even though in the end our losses or gains have nothing to do with the promoters. It's just that this kind of phenomenon is common and certainly has a big impact on the best of his followers.

Nope, gamble using my own money so I have to think one to ten times to me place any bet.
Indeed. We gamble or bet with our own money, not the money got from the celebrity. So, it is a wrong idea to follow a celebrity if we don't have an intention to bet on a sports match. Moreover, if we bet without any knowledge about it, we probably will end up losing money. Even if we are big fans of a certain celebrity, we don't need to follow every activity done by the celebrity. Be smart fans, don't blind when admiring someone.

But if it's for fun with a small bet, I'll definitely it a try, depending on the match too.
I think we don't need to try if we are not interested. Although it is only a small bet, it requires money too.
In my opinion, there will be no fun if it is something not interesting.

Playing bet should be by choice and not doing what others are doing
And the others choice is to copy what the celebrities they follow do. Well, it's different for me. I don't usually allow them to influence me but who knows, if that's my crush that's telling her fans to look at her bets.

Who I am to not look at it?  Grin

So, it's depends to the situation on who's that celebrity that's trying to influence their community. I'm sure that others are also easily influenced by their celebrity crushes.  Tongue
I don't think that it would be a great idea if the reason why you would try and bet on something is mainly that you have a crush on the celebrity who's bet on that too.

It's best that you depend on each situation and if your idol or celebrity crush has a reason and logical meaning as to why they will bet on that for you to be able to have atleast some insights on copying his/her bets.

I believe, such action will be common to younger generation but for older ones, I don't think so.
They already have their own disposition in life especially if it is related to money matters.
They may have celebrity favorites but I don't think they will be greatly influenced by their betting habits.
They may check the bets of their favorite celebs but it doesn't mean, they will also place bets.
If they know and are familiar with the sports, they will select their own winners.

Like many people I follow some famous people, but only because I am interested in their activities. Of course I will not follow the recommendations of celebrities in gambling, especially if they have not achieved any significant success in it. In my opinion such promotions are done to attract new users to the gambling site and celebrities get good money for it. The main thing that bothers me about such promotions is a huge number of children among subscribers who may perceive such promotions as a call to action.

Only kids or someone who does not know his left and gambling will not  know how to go about gambling. Playing bet should be by choice and not doing what others are doing. If the bet turns out to lose it can makes one feel hurt because the game wasn't played based on what one know about gambling.

As a matter of fact playing bet has nothing to do with celebrity choice because at the end they are not going to determine your winning or loosing neither will they render little money into your account for compensation, those we so called celebrities that we don't even try yo know their personalities in real life, you will be surprised if you discover some of their morals they got addicted to, gambling is playing what you could best predict and if lucky to be thesame as exactly being predicted by you then you make a winning, celebrities are just people behind this games we play often and have make it a career and are being professional it doing it, but i wouldn't bring celebs into my own gambling because it has nothing to help with.

I love Drake but as for betting options, it has never influenced me once in my decisions. I know before the game, Twitter Stake.com posted this and along with my bet for Madrid. Because I think Drake can influence his followers to bet on Barcelona but still Drake benefits as a promoter right? while his followers still lost. That's what crossed my mind.

Luckily I don't have a favorite celeb who gambles, so I don't have to bother to watch him gamble. I guess it's a personal choice, and I don't see that we should follow him to gamble on the same game. We have our own choices and don't need to gamble like him. The responsibility we have is also different from theirs. And if we lose, we can lose money that is very valuable in our lives. In comparison, the celeb will not feel the loss of his money, even though he also suffered a heavy loss.

Would you be influenced by your favourite Celebrity who you know gambles and one day happens to post the games he played, would you be influenced to play the same game?


I am not really following celebrities so much lately, in the past I used to have a few celebrities I followed on social media. But since my new job I have less time and took a break from social media, it's too time consuming and a bit addictive. It's cool if famous people show their betting slips, I enjoy seeing large bets and it's make them more likeable. Usually there is not interaction between the big whales, so when a celebrity posts how much money he puts down in a single bets I am rooting for that event. Placing a small bet myself doesn't hurt and it's gives me the chance to win some money too. We don't know how much information he really has and maybe he got some special tip that leads to a nice payout. As long as we don't look at it as a safe bet that can't lose, everything is okay. There is always the chance for us to lose the money, and for a celebrity it won't hurt losing 500k or million. That's why I only place a small bet to not feel bad if something goes wrong.

Even the best tipsters in the past not recommend following all the bets he shows, we have to think again about the matches we will place.

Look at that bet! I guess just looking at the size of this bet makes you feel like "this guy sure knows what he's doing"! But Drake also loses a lot on his sports bet, as we could see in the past... so I guess Drake is not a good tipster, but he has enough money to bet, again and again, each time with higher bets or higher odds, and in some moment he recovers. Anyway, Drake also plays other games, we can say that he is a real degen, Highroller degen!

This time he was unlucky, and all the people who decided to follow him... Well, I wish them more luck next time.

He is really using "real money"?
He is also a partner of that casino, maybe there is some agreement for showing such bets on a public audience?
I mean, generally speaking, we have any/real proof he is using money from his pocket ?
Make a bet with more half million of dollars seems a big amount even for a celebrity like him... it's around 1% of his "yearly" (gross) salary... just in one bet...

If someone who has a lot of experience in betting, especially in this discussion is football.
In no way will it be affected, although there is a sentimental side to the choices that have been made by celebrities who are idolized.

I don't know for most people, but for me personally it won't matter at all. because after all, we have a way of judging our own bets.  there is an analysis that we do before the game starts, everything is taken into consideration in determining which team will win the match. however, not infrequently we will compare the predictions made by other members here.  then decisions are made in betting.

Will you be influenced by your favourite celebrity?
Yes, I can be influenced by my favorite celebrity however it depends on the celebrity that I follow and what games they are gambling on. There are celebrities that are great with gambling strategies and deserved to be followed on while there are those who bet who only have limited knowledge of the game.

On the example you've provided with Drake, I would pretty much lean on my own decision, especially with Sports betting as I can make my own research as well as analyze which teams are most likely to win. However, if someone that idolize in sports have posted that tweet, then I could probably see myself betting on the team they've bet on.

If you're a die-hard fan you will likely follow the bets of your favorite celebrities because this is what die-hard fans do they imitate the way they dressed, the way they talk, and their hobbies, but if you're a real gambler you will not trust your betting to celebrities, unless the celebrities happen to be an authority on the sports that you are both betting, in the case of Drake, he is not an expert so his fans who followed his bets will likely lose their bets.

I am bringing up this because a popular Canadian musician Drake posted the games he played today on Stake,
---
Many of his fans who are into gambling as well, may have played same game without thinking. As it turns out, the game did not go as predicted for him and his bet lost.

Of course: NO!
I will never follow some kinds of suggestions Smiley
First of all, I don't need it. Secondly, I cannot trust someone providing such kind of bets with bigger odds.
I don't care he is "famous" or he is a celebrity. More over he is not "an expert" on that field.
In fact in the end... he has loosing the bet Sad I am really sorry for people that have followed this suggestion.
Well for sure... he is not payed for helping random people to make money Smiley but to help admins of platform to make money.

What the favorite celebrity uses, fan can be quite impressed. Those who are use stake for gambling are greatly encouraged if their favorite celebrity is actually on the platform. Especially in the places where the celebrity will set the bet, some fans often bet on the same place without any analysis. And I think this situation is very common for some gamblers.

Of course not. I don't have a "favorite celebrity" and the fact that someone is famous doesn't make him competent, when it comes to gambling. Being "influenced by your favorite celebrity" to do this or that seems dumb to me. Are we sheep or something?  Grin
Drake is rich and he can afford to lose several hundred dollars on sports betting. I can't afford to lose several hundred dollars on gambling/sports betting. His bet on Barcelona against Real was a clear mistake. Everybody knows that Barcelona is in a crisis right now and their odds against Real Madrid aren't very big. The Barcelona defenders didn't stand a chance against Benzema, Valverde, Vinicius Jr. and Rodrigo.

Unless the celebrity that you're following is an expert on the sport that you both are betting I don't recommend patterning your betting to your celebrity idol, usually, celebrity bettors can afford to lose, they have a lot of money in fact many of them are receiving a bonus to bet and promote their casinos, in your case you're playing your hard earned money unless your status is the same like your idol, follow your own judgment not someone else even if it's your idol.
