Can RCB defeat “Drake Curse” in the IPL 2025 final? Canadian rapper RS ​​6.41cr is betting on the RCB victory

While Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) is preparing to confront the Punjab kings (PBKS) in the IPL 2025 final at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmed Abad on June 3, Canadian rapper Drake raised excitement by putting a major bet of $ 750,000 (about 6.41 rupees) on RCB.

RCB, led by Rajat Patidar, seeks to get the first IPL title. The team includes strong offers this season, as Virat Kohli scored 614 runs and a Hazliowood Joshuel took 21 share.

Drake’s participation has sparked discussions about the so -called “Drake Curse”, a myth indicating that the teams or athletes supported by rapper often face bad luck. Victorious cases include losses by Toronto Raptors, PSG, Conor McGregor and Serena Williams after Drake supported them publicly.

However, the recent events challenge this novel. In 2024, Drake won more than 3.5 rupees by betting on Rids Kolkata Knight in the IPL final and won a $ 2 million profit from a bet on Kansas City Chief in the AFC Championship.

Drake’s betting activities are closely related to his partnership with Stake, which is an online gambling platform online. According to what was stated, an annual support deal worth $ 100 million with a stake, and often hosts live currents as it puts high -risk bets.

In an interview with him recently about his partnership with Stake, Drake cleaned all speculation about the so -called “Drake Curse”, where he said, “I am sure that you are a believer Drake Curse, there will be a lot of content in the future to confirm your theories because for any reason, my vouchers are not spent.”

Drake is not the only celebrity to make his alliances known. Canadian Punjabi singer Karan Ogla also put a bet on a stake, as he rose against Drake, and put about $ 500,000 (about 3.1 rupees) on the victory of Punjab kings.

Online bet in India: a gray area

Stake works in a legal gray area in India. Although there are no federal laws that explicitly prohibit gambling over the Internet, legitimacy varies according to the state. The states like Telangana and Andhra Pradesh have banned all forms of gambling online, making platforms like illegal Stake there. However, in countries where there is no ban, it is generally allowed to use betting sites abroad such as the class.

The main gambling law in India, the General Gambling Law of 1867, runs or visits the role of material gambling, but it does not mention betting online or sports. For this reason, each state decides its own rules. Some countries such as SIKKIM and Goa allow certain types of betting, while most other cases have strict rules or full ban, especially on the gambling online.

Indian users can still access international betting sites such as Stake because there is no national law that clearly stops them, except in states such as Telangana and Andhra Pradesh, where all gambling is banned online. Due to the lack of a central law for betting online, the rules are still unclear in many parts of the country.

With the RCB fans gathering behind their team with the chant “EE Sala Cup Namde” (this year, the cup is ours), all eyes on whether Drake’s bet would be a lucky charm or Jinx. IPL 2025 is the final not only with a causative confrontation but also the superstition for performance.
