Drake loses $615k bet on Joshua-Ngannou bout

[Slow death]

he is a rich person so even if he loses that amount of money, with the business he has, he can easily recover that money he lost, there are also days when he manages to win, so in my opinion he is not losing much, He is probably making more money than losing money, rich people like him have access to brilliant minds, by which I mean that rich people like him have intelligent employees managing his assets and who constantly give him financial advice. probably before he makes a sports bet, he looks at his assets and how much profit he will have this month and based on that he makes calculations of how much money he can risk betting, for example if he makes calculations of what his profits will be this month will exceed 5 million dollars

so he can risk making a bet of 600 million dollars, if he loses the bet, then it will only reduce his monthly profit to something like 4 and a half million dollars, and this does not reduce his assets in any way or reduce his money that he has in his bank accounts, so this is the difference between the rich person playing and losing and the poor person who only depends on his salary when he plays and loses at the game, I had already talked about this here on the forum, that the person who depends on his salary does not At the end of the month to take out a little money to play and have fun, he will be harming himself, while the person who has a lot of business and plays will not harm himself because the money he lost gambling will be recovered with the business he has

Just like a normal day for Drake and seriously, this is still a small amount of money for him.
Well, we can’t blame Drake because many anticipate that Francis will be the one to win here unfortunately the result turns out different and a loss via knocked out. This could be the problem if you have that much money, you don’t analyze the match anymore and you are just following the hype or someone’s advice.

Obviously, knockouts is very much a part of the game. It doesn’t really matter what the opponents wins by so long as gambling is concerned, it’s a matter of who wins in the end, I might not be very familiar with the boxing markets but, isn’t knockout an option?

Meanwhile, it’s almost a tradition for Drake to often make these huge bets and loss then, it goes public. It’s nothing to him and doesn’t change anything about his gambling habits. His going to have his go at it yet again. Let’s just give it a little time. His shows, deals and investment makes sure his not the loser in the end.

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.

First off, congratulations to Joshua for putting up a great fight and disappointing the lot of us. The match made Joshua look like the underdog because of his pass losses. Now that Francis lost, where is he going to draw his motivation from to fight Fury. Or maybe he is going to ask for a rematch with Joshua.

Drake lost $615000.

As for Drake, I don't care if he lost a billion dollars. His loss, his business.

The fights comes interesting before our very own eyes, with both fighter giving their best. AJ is unstoppable, he knocked out Francis Ngannou in the second round with a KO finish which is a fierce move coming from the fighter. The Drake's curse followed Francis Ngannou because there's this pure fact about the Canadian artist, he tends to lose money easily when it comes to gambling. He's very unlucky with these games but he has been adamant and refused to quit, rather he's aiming to placing more bets on earning quite important points in the system.

Fights are not favorable to him, as he is always betting on the loser, because he does not have the luck of betting on the fighter that do win the fights. He is very wealthy, and I don't think that those losses matter a lot to him, if not maybe he would ha e stopped betting on fights.

A lot of gamblers must have lost yesterday because they will think that Ngannou will be the winner, because of the way he won Tyson Fury in his last fight. But he becamw weak when he was fighting with AJ, and accepted defeat in the second round without difficulties. Gamble is a game of luck, and it is after the outcome that a gambler will know if he made the right decision or not.

That's what he deserves... Immediately when I saw his tickets from Twitter, I knew that was gonna turn out bad..
what's normally the reasons why he shows off his tickets after betting if I may ask? To create some sort of shades?.. lol, now the whole world knows he's lost the game and he has remained quiet ever since then... Isn't that enough shame for the day?
I won't dare to wager on the same option as his - inspite having way lesser budget for the game (assuming I normally wager games).. why bet on Francis over Joshua? The former is just an overhyped piece of shit.

Knockout is option with in recent years we have too many options in boxing as well which are giving good response to punters for their bets like how to win when to win and many more options available.
I have feeling Drake is doing this all for few casinos as well because after his ticket and bet many peoples try to follow him, and mostly he posts his tickets as well which create good influence and also good hype about the player where he is investing in this boxing match as things were going for me there was no chance for the Ngannou because few months back he lost against Fury, and now he is having second defeat with things are going to be troubled due to his quick knockout.

[Mahanton]

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?

We have seen those loses and there's no way that we could really be able to stop on how he would really be doing his gambling ways. We've seen those huge numbers but
also we've seen on how he had been able to make huge money too. This is why it would really better that let him be on the things that he would really be doing
because its his money and if ever he would really be that losing up then of course he is aware on how he would really be losing and it would really be just that
normal that he would be frustrated but it would really be that impossible that he wont be able to recover those loses considering on how much this man worth.

It is intriguing when a known celebrity like Drake losses with his bets. But these money of his can be recovered easily by him knowing that he's got some sponsorships and deals with his label.

While this is like a life savings to the most of us, this how the rich people gamble. It's like nothing on them but I am sure that there's a point of his moment that he's terribly feeling bad about such losses, everytime he's into this situation.

As that's easy money to recover for him, I also have some losses that can easily be recovered but too far to compare to him.

This is not the first loss of Drake when it comes to high stake betting. If you follow his instagram, you will understand that he's really one of the high rollers in sportsbetting at stake. Do remember, we don't know how much he is being paid at stake being the Ambassador of this bookie. And actually, even if he was on the losing side here, he's also getting something from it. Publishing his losing bet alone has some kind of money deal with stake. Though when he posted it, the results were not yet out.

I know someone already posted that bet but I want to share the perspective that Drake has 146 millions of followers and so the impact is quite a big deal here. And you know, people talk. Thus, a very good campaign for stake as well even if he lost this bet.

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,

• Jake Paul vs. Tommy Fury fight: Drake loses $400,000 after betting on Paul to knock out Fury.
• Drake LOSES another $250,000 after betting on Nate Diaz to beat Jake Paul

So the Drake curse continues...

I wonder whether Drake actually bets with his own money or whether the whole idea is to do some great marketing for Stake. His marketing effect is huge and I guess most of his bets are paid for by Stake.com. And I guess losing bets are probably better marketing than winning bets as nobody would really be talking about Drake winning a million in sports betting. But losing 615k sounds like a good story that people would rather be inclined to share and talk about.

The bet size is a bit weird I think because if someone bets hundreds of thousands of dollars, why would he go with 615k instead of just round 600k? Like, he is sitting there and comes to the conclusion and that 600k is not enough, so he tops it up by another 15k

Peanuts compared to what he usually lose when he makes bets like this. Last time he lost something major it was around 2 mill if I'm not mistaken, and I'm not here to defend his actions cause if I'm not mistaken he's a chronic gambler teetering towards to gambling addiction. Only difference is that he makes the money he lost soon as he loses it, so it doesn't really matter as much as it does to us when he lose millions, or if he's that addicted cause at the end of the day, he only loses the equivalent of a couple big macs to us.

Plus it's not like he's misusing the money, no virtue signaling here or whatever since he whatever he got, he earned fair and square. So in that regard we really don't have a say on where he spends his shit. I personally take it as an inspiration, not to become a gambling addict like him (like fuck I've been in that boat and it's not the most amazing thing) but be as rich as him that it doesn't even matter if you get addicted to gambling (although of course, it's an analogy, not really looking to become addicted to gambling when I finally get rich) cause earning the money back is not going to be your problem anymore, it's spending it fulfillingly.

Game-wise, I don't even know why I still trust Ngannou at this point. It's great that he's a powerhouse that hits like a fucking boulder but if you got a glass jaw that doesn't really matter anymore, especially if you don't even develop strategies/techniques or improvement programs to better your defenses or at the very least improve. It's just so complacent at this point and I'm slowly losing my trust and confidence in him as a fighter.

Drake lost $615000.

You win some, you lose some. You can’t win it all. This would be added to his growing list of losses he has made during the years he has had gambling.
This loss like others and despite the amount, will probably not have any effect on him or his finances and it’ll probably be just like any other loss he has had before.

$615,00 is no small amount to lose but I guess with his history, he’s not a stranger to losses like this.

[SmartGold01]

And you think this amount really affects him?
Now what was his total winning I mean if that his bet on this fight win what amount was he supposed to win, $615k quiet large enough for someone to lose at this dying economy because of trying to make more money where it could lead to losing more. Well I won't picture this because it always affects mind even though he bets with he can afford to lose but at least this could have gone a way for the helpless people out there than to just lost it in gamble.

Drake is been known to be a heavy gambling on which it would be something that the community would really be able to tell or assume out that this amount is really nothing. We've seen on how
huge he do make out bets and how much he do win or lose. This is something that really great to see win hitting up those huge wins and same goes when losing money on which regret is there.
We do know that Drake is usually hanging out on Stake and showing those bet sizes and those winning on losing which could make you that drooled.
When it comes to bet then for sure there are tons who hadnt been able to expect for Joshua to win. You do know on what im saying.

[PX-Z]

And you think this amount really affects him?

Of course, no, he lost more than that, the post is just letting us know how broke most people are in compare to a high bettor that even lossing thousands of $, his life is not affected to it.

but at least this could have gone a way for the helpless people out there than to just lost it in gamble.

It's his money, no need to tell him that, let the man enjoy what he earned for. He is not obliged to give those who are broke, your money your rules.

But, do you know that he has too many philanthropic activity^[1] already before saying this?

We know anything is possible and no one can predicts how he could win this match although from the physical out look nobody could have tell the truth Joshua will win but fortunately he won the match against his opponent it's a thing of shock and surprising.
Although I have came across some post over here in the forum about his gambling lifestyle so the money lost was amount he can be able to lose without the need to attach any emotional feelings towards it, 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.

[Rruchi man]

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. It is people who are usually aware of their gambling choices and the amounts they have used in gambling that usually worry about it, and sing it out that these people lost this kind of amount of money. Had Drake not made public his bet slip, we never would have known of his losses, and the amount he has lost to this betting on boxing.

[Mrbluntzy]

I just can not risk such huge amount for only one game that am not even sure will what the end result will become. Some gamblers are just full of hard risk and surprises. For the records, Drake have always been known as a big gambler that usually stake huge amount and he also ends up to lose a huge amount most of time. In the history of gambling, there are other serious gamblers who have lost large amount in their bankroll. Even if I become very rich, I will not gamble off a huge amount just on one game.

[Z-tight]

I don't know why Drake became so popular for gambling and sharing his predictions online, many of which have eventually gone against him and he lost. He plays his games on the Stake.com platform, so i am just thinking if some of these bets is just a form of promotion for the betting company more than him actually trying to make money from the games. However, do not make the decision of staking more than you can afford to lose because of this, Drake is very rich and the amount staked might not be anything to him, and this could also be nothing more than promotion.
