Rapper Drake has broken his losing streak in high-stakes wagers. He recently placed a $770,000 bet on Canada to defeat South Africa in the FIFA World Cup, and the team's 1-0 victory brought him a profit of around $230,000.
This win is a rare success for Drake, who has been dubbed 'the curse' after numerous losing bets. He wagered over $600,000 worth of Bitcoin on FC Barcelona to beat Real Madrid in 2022, but the team lost.
Drake's losses extend beyond football matches. In 2024, he lost $700,000 worth of Bitcoin on a UFC fight and parted with $1 million after the New England Patriots lost the Super Bowl.
