As the captivating World Cup Final between France and Argentina went down to the wire, xQc’s bets all took a toll with every twist and turn. Unfortunately for him, his entire series of wagers was unsuccessful.
xQc showed his unshakable faith in the French football team by placing an audacious bet of 500,000 dollars prior to their match versus Argentina during the World Cup. It’s no surprise that many others shared a similar trust and assurance in Les Bleus’ success!
With Argentina dominating the game with a 2-0 lead, it seemed like all was lost for France. But then Mbappe stepped up and scored two astonishing goals to spark a glimmer of hope in their fans as the match went into overtime. In an instant, what looked to be one-sided became incredibly close again!
Nevertheless, xQc had already resigned himself to defeat and chose to withdraw his wager in what would be the first of many unsuccessful attempts at lessening the severity of his losses.
Popular Twitch streamer xQc suffered an unfortunate financial loss of greater than $500,000 after placing a bet on the World Cup.
With immense faith, xQc shared a photo on Twitter to showcase his belief in France winning the game. Ultimately, he retracted from this bet and forfeited $5,000 for a meager pay out, leading him down by $495K as a result of his abandonment.
Despite the fact that xQc had already lost a great deal of money due to pulling out his bet prior, he still chose to gamble on France again when Mbappe scored two goals. He was loyal to the team he was cheering for even after removing himself from betting only minutes before.
His second wager was for France to be the first team to score during overtime rather than win, and unfortunately he lost this bet too after placing an extra $100,000 dollars.
xQc made multiple attempts to place a bet for the penalty shots, but was unable to join before the slip closed. Inevitably, xQc’s risky bets resulted in an astounding loss of nearly one million dollars from the World Cup.
Following Argentina’s victory, xQc announced on stream: “That was intense, but it is what it is. I guess sometimes the odds don’t play out in your favor.” His chatters were spamming -$600k due to his unfortunate betting experiences and he eventually discovered that his total losses for the day tallied up to $650k.
