Drake filmed winning $12,240,000 on a roulette spin wearing an 05/06 Arsenal kit, he's made up for his El Clasico bet fail

Canadian rapper Drake won $12,240,000 [£10.8m] on a single roulette spin at the weekend, and he did so wearing Arsenal's iconic 2005/06 shirt.

It has been an eventful few days for the multi-platinum selling artist. On Sunday night, he lost a hefty $833,000 [£745,000] after placing a bet on this weekend's football fixtures.

The 35-year-old was convinced Mikel Arteta's Arsenal side would extend their lead at the top of the Premier League ladder with a win against Leeds United – and they did just that thanks to Bukayo Saka.

But the Toronto-born rapper also predicted a win for Barcelona in Sunday's El Clasico – a game that eventually finished 3-1 to Madrid as goals from Karim Benzema, Federico Valverde and Rodrygo sealed all three points.

He may have lost out on a couple of million dollars after Barcelona's 3-1 defeat to Madrid, but hours later, Drake decided to try his luck on the roulette table.

The 35-year-old, who regularly streams on his official Twitch channel stakedrake, actually celebrated a few big wins.

In fact, 'Drizzy' earned a monstrous $12,240,000 on a single spin as he sported an Arsenal shirt from Thierry Henry's glory days in North London. You can see that winning moment in the video above.

The US rapper clearly isn't afraid to take a few risks every now and then. Take a bet in July last year, for example.

Drake placed $2.3m (£1.9m) on the UFC London card, where he successfully lumped on Liverpool pair Molly McCann and Paddy Pimblett to come out victorious.

He also put $1m on middleweight champion Israel Adesanya beating Jared Cannonier and once again, he earned a healthy sum from his gamble.

Sometimes though, things don't go to plan. 'Drizzy' lost $275,000 on the UFC 272 main event earlier this year, when he bet $275K on Jorge Masvidal to beat Colby Covington.Since he joined the crypto casino in December 2021, Drake has wagered huge amounts of cash.

In just two months, the rapper wagered cryptocurrency worth over $1bn on various sports and casino bets, according to Casino.org.
