Default Drake “0 to 100” flawless briefcases



Last couple of months drake has been more involved in the gambling world. Usually seen sitting court side at raptors games while waging thousands on online blackjack on his laptop. Lost a substantial amount on masvidals last fight.

It appears he’s into breaking and collecting(?) Cards now too. Can’t be a bearish sign. Cool to see one of the most coveted artists enter
The game. This ain’t no Steve Aoki.

He's probably been collecting low key the last few years. Still nothing on the Filipino shipping mafia break, as of now, but that's probably only due to availability I'm sure.

So it turns out that Drake was looking for the Curry/Durant/Giannis triple Logoman and the same day Breaking Brad hit it.

Are you sure he wasn't looking for the Bron triple?

Must be nice to have the disposable income to take a huge gamble on 14 boxes of Flawless and lose Even with that Ja 1/1, its still a huge loss unless he hit something else big

This seemed like more of a promotional thing? Drake was never actually on the stream but that Shyne guy was on for a bit doing box wars. Looked like Blez was opening the boxes.

He drops more on a 1hr lightning roulette sesh on Stake.

Probably paid substantially less for these, as a good portion of what he owns is shoutout/promo value for others like a youtube sponsorship.



In related news, spotted #fakedrake huddled down in the feminine hygiene section at Wally's last week covertly weighing out Flux blasters.

Started from the bottom...

I did the hard work so you don't have to. Drake was not getting comped flawless, he didn't even appear on the video, unlike Shine who evokes WSoP circa 2007. He did battle while "working." And Blez is not totally familiar with the sport he represents in the break, as he mispronounced Devin Vassell, Aaron Nesmith, and many other rookie names (17 months in).

Instagram attention spans actually good for clktrs of those players, as ultra rare is still reasonable.

There was a mildly interesting skirmish between Goldin and Shine, whether a Luka auto /15 was more valuable than a Trae patch auto /25. Shine settled it by saying he would put down more money for the Trae, so it was worth more. Hard to argue.

I believe that neck beards are just too difficult to shave. But they come in handy in the winter. I would be much more worried about chrome domes.

I fail to see how this is good for the hobby contrary to what the IG influencers are trying to portray atm. I doubt Drake will even keep any of those cards, I bet it was purely a gamble type situation someone convinced him was a good idea.

IMO, this was a pretty good scheme to keep interest in high end on the rise. Lots of guys need that market to keep going up given the amount of money that was dumped into this stuff these past 2 years.

How much longer do we realistically think they can keep this up? There's only so many people left who can afford breaking Flawless at this point. Lots of gamblers are even getting priced out of group breaks now as well.

I would like to see a high end poker game where players slap down a stack of Flawless instead of chips.
