Drake Curse Continues: Rapper Just Lost $1.75 Million Due to a Wrong Sports Bet
Everyone is aware of Drake’s extreme passion for sports betting, which neither makes him popular nor hurts his hard-earned wealth. The real name of the Canadian rapper and singer is Aubrey Drake Graham, who has been quite busy ever since he first entered the music business in 2006 with his debut mixtape Room for Improvement and began releasing hit albums one after the other.
The 36-year-old is undoubtedly a very talented musician, but when it comes to sports betting, he lacks a lot of gambling expertise. The Canadian has a history of making poor choices at the bookies, and this time he lost huge sums of money betting on the NCAA basketball Final Four.
The rapper, however, devoted the majority of last year to music. Before his collaborative hip-hop album Her Loss with fellow rapper, 21 Savage, Drake surprised fans with his experimental album Honestly, Nevermind.
But, he appears to have a new interest, though, one unrelated to his primary profession.
This Is Another Loss For Drake In His Sports Betting Account
Drake has been extremely busy as a result of his recent growing involvement in gambling. Fans have many questions for him because he has invested millions of dollars in this pastime.
Sportsbooks and casinos continue to profit greatly from betting on celebrity sporting events. The Canadian has lost a lot of money over the years by making dubious decisions at the bookies, and he has now lost money once again. He predicted that the Miami Hurricanes would defeat the UConn Huskies and the Florida Atlantic Owls would defeat the San Diego State Aztecs. But both of his predictions were wrong (UConn defeated San Diego State in the championship game).
The famous rapper, who has already lost quite a bit of money on his sports betting account, has suffered another setback.
Drake, as usual, places down a sizable sum, in this case, $250,000 dollars. If both underdogs had prevailed, he would have received a parlay payout of more than $1.5 million, but they lost.
He admitted on his Instagram story that he bet a significant amount of money on FAU and Miami to win the game outright with money line odds of +118 and +190, respectively.
His Track Record of Losing at Sports Betting
Drake has a reputation for making expensive bets over the years, the majority of which are losers.
Among his notable blunders over the previous year were incorrectly picking the Miami Dolphins, Charles Leclerc, and various losing UFC fighters, as well as Barcelona in a Clasico.
The rapper lost his wager even though he predicted Argentina to win the World Cup final because he thought they would win in the regular 90-minute period, but the game ended up being decided on penalties.
Many people make poor choices when betting on sports teams, but the Canadian has a particular issue that gives rise to the infamous ‘Drake curse’ because he won’t stop posting his predictions on social media. Ans this eventually, makes him the target of ridicule when the opposite happens.
Along with his significant losses at the bookies, Drake has also been associated with bad luck for athletes.
This is because players like Paul Pogba, Jadon Sancho, Layvin Kurzawa, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, and Sergio Aguero have all lost games or experienced bad luck after getting their picture taken with the Canadian rapper.
The 36-year-old’s estimated worth, according to Yahoo! in October was a staggering $250 million, so he can afford to lose more money than most.
Still, his ‘Drake Curse’ seems to be very much alive and thriving.
