The most famous regular on the floor.
Drake has been Stake's headline partner since 2022. On 6 November 2026 he took a seat at Kevin Hart's blackjack table, live on Kick. This is the full file. The welcome code stays MAX3000.
Two of the biggest names in entertainment, one blackjack table, a $160,000 hand.
On 6 November 2026, Kevin Hart walked onto Pragmatic Play's live casino studio floor for the first of four hosted sessions across two days. Drake was live on Kick at the same moment, playing at Stake. He pulled up a chair at Hart's table.
The screen tells the story. The table is Blackjack 25, with limits from $100 to $250,000 a hand. Hart sits in a white suit beside the dealer. Drake runs the action from his own desk in the corner camera, with a $160,000 total bet on the felt and a balance a little over $1.77 million.
Complex reported that the two played together from separate locations, Hart in the studio and Drake at his streaming setup, with Drake carrying on alone after Hart signed off.
"When the opportunity to host some of Pragmatic Play's biggest live casino games came up, I jumped at the opportunity. I'm bringing the Kevin energy to Pragmatic Play."
Kevin Hart, on announcing the partnership
Good to know: Kevin Hart is not a Stake ambassador. He came in as Pragmatic Play's guest host, and his tables ran in the live lobbies of Pragmatic's casino partners. Stake is one of them, which is how the club's most famous regular ended up across the felt from him.
