Logan Paul doesn't seem to mind rapper Drake cashing in a massive bet on him , despite the infamous 'Drake Curse' having wreaked havoc in the sporting world in recent years.

The Canadian rapper is known for placing high-stake wagers on popular sporting events. However, his luck at gambling has always been abysmal.

The musician's constant misfortunes at the betting tables have been synonymized with a superstitious phenomenon called the 'Drake Curse,' according to which sporting teams or athletes who come in contact with him suffer significant downfalls in their careers.

The Grammy Award winner has been accused repeatedly of jinxing athletes and sporting sides by placing bets on them. This time around, Drake has placed a whopping $850,000 bet on 'The Maverick' to win his fight against Dillon Danis via knockout.
