Drake showed amount he has lost to stake, has bet $120m in a month.

[verdinio]

It's not new that Drake is officially partner with stake casino, he has done a lot of posts and some PR for the casino but there is something off about this PR that is not adding up. He showed a screenshot amount worth $120m in only a month and with negative profit. How is that even possible? There is gambling addiction but this is beyond the type of addiction we all know and everyday he keeps doing some PR promotions for them to bring people to the casino.
Is this PR or it's real, how much is he worth to be losing this amount a month to gambling. Some people says this is a back end data and not real money.

Well, first of all, it shows that Stake is a casino of such a level, where you can keep such a large amount of money on deposit and not worry about its safety. Can every casino boast of this?
 If I had 120 million, I would be afraid to deposit even 1,000,000 on any casino. Therefore, this post by Drake definitely puts Stake in a good light.

Well, as for the loss - compared to his deposit, this is not a big loss. And it is possible that next month he will win this money back.

but no one has ever thought that this is pure marketing, that is, it is obvious, he goes there, puts the money and then loses, and punctually loses, systematically always loses the amount partly because he makes stupid bets and partly I think he also does it for a sort of publicity

Not everyone knows that he’s actually partnered with Stake, so most people won’t even think twice about it. For a celebrity to lose that much, it only makes Stake look more trustworthy .. good marketing move for the casino. And for sure, this will make them even more popular. Whatever the agreement is between them, it’s definitely worth it from a promotion standpoint.

It’s definitely marketing. Bad publicity is still publicity. Drake managed to promote the casino even this way. Some people might think negatively about it, like, if he can’t win with that amount, what more with their small bankroll? But still, his goal was achieved, and that’s to promote the casino and make it more popular, especially to those who haven’t played there yet. It’s an attention grabbing strategy because it involves a huge amount of money, and it surely reached the target audience.

To be frank, I dont really care about any amount both winning or losing if the story comes from influencers.
For me it is just a marketing, I do not even care whether the money played by the influencers is real or not.
I'd like to suggest for all users to take any gambling videos/live streams as enterntainment only so it should not be something that may trigger us to do something similar to what is done by the influencers/streamers.

Drake is also working at changing the narratives that influencers and streamers always win. This has been a major conversation in the gambling community and his recent post intends to remove that doubt and unveil to everyone that losing is for everyone. No immunity whatsoever. But this is marketing no doubt, it's just a strategic way to get people talking again since they're fed up with the news of Drake winning millions of dollars off a couple hands.

Here’s the logic, if he’s not benefiting from posting it, then he wouldn’t. I mean, what kind of gambler would proudly post his losses for the public to see, especially if he’s a well-known personality? That would just bring in negative comments. But since he’s clearly getting something out of it, he’s okay with it. Makes sense why he doesn’t mind sharing it.

That’s the question, just how much is Drake worth?
When I saw the amount in the screenshot, I quickly ran to the web to search on Drake’s net worth and it’s at a staggering $250m.

From what I could understand in that screenshot, he didn’t loss $124m rather, he wagered the said amount within the duration of a month and all weren’t lost and some of them was very much wins that got wagered again. So, it’s not like he was just sinking money into gambling, having to increase his bankroll after each loss. In fact, from the image posted, what he truly lost within the duration of a month is about $8.3m. Now that’s a lot of money really but, it’s again, it’s Drake and these could be promotions!

[DaNNy001]

For a gambler who lost even just a few thousands to a casino, he would likely be moving to some other casino to try his luck somewhere. Sticking to Stake would be stupid of him.  But since the speculation that his isn't his real money, its making sense.

The behavior look more dubious if he kept playing on Stake still despite loosing a lot of money. Truth is that all these act is just a Stake promotion. Easier to promote a company using a person who is a lot popular.

Everyone doubts the fact that he actually lost such an amount of money in the casino, even though that might be true we must remember that he has always been a gambler even before his deal with stake.... it's possible he lost but didn't think of trying out other casinos... There are times for promotions and times he's gambling because he has passion for it... let's face it this guy has a lot of million.

I could have sworn Drake was quite close to being a billionaire, but I suppose I was wrong in the end.
Still, losing almost nine million dollars being someone whose net worth is not even half billion is not neglectable, if that is what he actually lost I would not be surprised he actually felt the pitch and realized how much he could have done with all that cash, of course, that is in the case we assume that is money that come completely out his own pocket, which would make it more painful.

Ironically, Drake does not seem to be the kind of person who is specially lucky on casinos or betting on sports, I have already seen people here in the forum pointing out who he seems to be suffering from a curse or something like it, and how even his viewers on Kick make fun of him and his bad luck when he decides to bet on a team before a match.

Since he is very wealthy and has got some good amount of funds to spare at the casino, he has got other sources of income so this may not turn out a big deal for him because he will still recover it from another source of income. If it happens that all this amount are true,  I think there is an agreement that will be reached between him and stake because the amount is quite huge and not one who someone can just throw around. He may have a recovery strategy with which he can use to recover that which he is loosing.  I don't want to believe he is addicted or has got an addiction issue because he doesn't gamble all the time  and I believe he will have people around him who will provide him with advice and ideas on how to handle this.its even possible all of this is part of PR for stake.

Nah, this isn't PR. This is just Drake showing off his gambling addiction. I don't know why he does it. Is he bragging with the amount he spends on gambling? This doesn't make any sense. Anyway, Drake is rich enough to afford losing between 5 and 8 million USD every month. Maybe someday he will manage to win 200 million and cover all his loses from the past. Or maybe Stake had found the biggest gambling "sugar daddy" in the history of online casinos and they are trying to milk him as much as possible.

Probably Drake is captured by his image. He can not allow himself to spend or lose less. If he buys something inexpensive, or places a low (regarding his fortune) bet, his fans would not understand that and would start thinking he is in troubles. Also it will harm his businesses. But, I have said it in the past, stop looking on Drake through the prism of his losses in gambling. Start looking more generally. He is not only loosing, but he is winning also. People only discuss his fails, ignoring his success.

[Dr.Bitcoin_Strange]

Some of these rich celebrities are secretly affiliated to some of these popular casinos and we might not know about it, if Drake is playing with real account or a fake account, we can not also be sure about it. It's possible that he can be playing with real account but win as much as he loses too. I don't follow up his gambling record since he usually post them online but I have not seen any member here posting a huge amount won by Drake, it's usually big losses that people keep posting about, that lead me to ask, does he (Drake) not normally post big wins too? Why is it only losses we keep seeing? I believe this guy win huge amount too that he might  not openly post them.

Gambling should be a personal adventure because it is your money that is involved. You don't need to be motivated by any celebrity on how to handle your gambling activities. Drake can post his gambling account on social media, but that's not my business. Maybe he can afford it, or as it has been said that he is affiliated with Stake. The assumption that we don't know if the account is fake should be enough to make gamblers avoid being moved by these shows. I will have to gamble based on my financial standings and not by what someone says or shows on the internet.

I don't even feel a flinch by any celebrity's gambling lifestyles or the gambling patterns of someone's else, this is not the first time that this kind of thread about huge losses is coming up, what only surprises me is how he doesn't post about huge win or people chose not to post the huge win and decided to post just the losses, which practically could really be their own strategy of promotion.

[boltz]

I don't really care what Drake promotes and I never will. The fact that some people are trying to defend Drake for his actions and how hard is promoting gambling it's something that makes me sad.

Do you actually think that Drake lost from his own wallet ? because I think he has infinite balance end he can bet as much as he wants because the money will always return to the casino he promotes. Maybe , he did some bets from his own wallet and I'm sure he is a true addict by now but he is too comfy to realize it yet.

If that’s what gambling addiction looks like, then Drake should’ve gone bankrupt a long time ago. It’s hard to trust a celebrity flexing his gambling losses, it might not even be real. He’s not just some regular person; what he’s doing could easily be tied to business or promotion. If he were just a normal guy with no casino partnership, then maybe it would be more believable.

Drake has lots of source of income so I guess he will not gonna bankrupt with that losses even excluding Stake partnership salary.

I believe it’s both PR and being hooked on gambling that result to that gambling activity and losses. His gambling activity increased significantly after Stake partnership while he doesn’t need to focus on gambling just to promote Stake and earn money since he is still popular on music industry.

So I believe it’s more on his organically interested on gambling while using Stake funds as additional bankroll on his own.

If you look at the situation in fact, then all kinds of things are now discussing this, which means that even if this is promotion, it worked. They say that there is no such thing as anti-advertisement, well, maybe that's true. But I see that many people are responding negatively and directly condemning Drake and his screenshot with these huge numbers. Will there be someone who will say that this is cool? Yes, of course, everyone loves to look at what the rich do. Will anyone say that this is not cool? Yes, because there are those who sincerely love Drake for his work and they are sad to see that their idol is either addicted to gambling or is a cunning promoter.

sometimes people don't believe it when they see things that are too positive, “too good to be true”. i don't know if these statistics are real or not, but this post by drake about stake is definitely good marketing.

you've heard the saying that there's no such thing as bad publicity. no one is looking at how much drake won or lost. there's a huge amount of money and a celebrity is gambling with it in a casino. that's all there is to it. i'm sure there are a lot of people who saw this and tried their luck in this online casino. that's what sponsorship is all about.
