Drake’s betting habits are raising eyebrows, and it’s costing him. The rapper reportedly lost over $2 million in a single night while betting on the Kansas City chiefs during Super Bowl LVIII.
According to reports from several sources, including US vs.Them podcast, Drake placed a massive bet on the San Francisco 49ers to win the Super bowl. When the chiefs ultimately triumphed in overtime, Drake’s wager didn’t pay off.
It’s not just the Super Bowl loss. Drake has been increasingly public about his sports betting, often showcasing his bets on social media. He’s also partnered with Stake, a cryptocurrency casino and sports betting site, becoming a brand ambassador. Though, recent losses suggest his luck isn’t holding up.
Earlier this season, Drake lost $600,000 betting on the Los Angeles Lakers. He also reportedly lost over $100,000 betting on Jake Paul’s boxing match against Nate Diaz. These losses are adding up, and some are questioning weather his public betting is a smart move.
While Drake can certainly afford the losses, the constant stream of failed bets is becoming a talking point. It’s a reminder that even with deep pockets, gambling always carries risk. It remains to be seen if Drake will adjust his strategy or continue to publicly place large bets.
