Drake Bets $250,000 on Kolkata Knight Riders for IPL 2024 Final
Rapper-singer Drake has made headlines with his latest Instagram post, revealing that he has placed a $250,000 bet on the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) to win the IPL 2024 final. Drake, who frequently engages in high-stakes gambling, shared a screenshot of his bet on ‘Stake,’ a popular crypto casino, along with a caption that read, “Since @ovorajuju (Sureshkumar Subramaniam) team is out I am going with KKR for my first ever cricket bet (laughing with tears emoji) korbo lorbo jitbo.”
Drake’s support for KKR stems from his association with Sureshkumar Subramaniam, who has been referred to as Drake’s manager by some media outlets. Subramaniam has expressed his support for KKR in the past, and Drake’s decision to follow suit has garnered much attention.
The IPL 2024 final will see KKR face off against the Sunrisers Hyderabad. While Drake’s bet has generated excitement among KKR fans, it has also raised concerns among netizens who believe that Drake’s past betting record may not bode well for the team. Drake has made numerous large bets on high-profile sporting events, but many of his substantial wagers have not been successful.
Despite the concerns of some, KKR fans remain optimistic about their chances of securing victory with Drake’s support. The match promises to be a thrilling encounter, and all eyes will be on KKR to see if they can defy Drake’s perceived “betting curse” and emerge victorious in the IPL 2024 final.
