Canadian rapper Drake has once again made waves in the sports betting world, posting a screenshot of his latest high-stakes wager on the crypto-friendly platform Stake.com.
This time, the Grammy-winning artist is turning his attention to the final of the Indian Premier League (IPL), backing Royal Challengers Bangalore to beat Punjab Kings.
Drake placed a $750,000 bet using cryptocurrency, with betting odds of 1.75.
Should his pick come through, the rapper stands to pocket a net win of $562,500.

The highly anticipated IPL final is set for today, June 3, with first ball scheduled for 4:00 PM CET.
As previously reported by Gambling Park, Drake has become a regular presence in major sports betting markets, including the NHL playoffs. Notably, he backed the Toronto Maple Leafs to advance in a recent round — only to lose a $1 million wager.
