Sports betting has only been live in the Buckeye State for a few days, but you can still for a $1,000 first-bet insurance launch offer from BetMGM Ohio. This promo will back your initial cash wager on any NBA or NHL game up to $1,000.
New players who register with BetMGM Ohio before the weekend will get to place their first real-money wager on any NBA or NHL game knowing they've got a second chance at the ready. If you sign up for this first-bet insurance promo, you will essentially have two shots to earn your first win.
Ohioans looking for an in-state team to bet on will be out of luck on the NBA side, as the Cleveland Cavaliers don't play until Friday night. You could choose to sign up today and place a wager on that matchup or another NBA game taking place on Thursday. If you really want to bet on an Ohio-based team, the Columbus Blue Jackets are a 1.5-goal underdog to the Washington Capitals on Thursday night.
Register with BetMGM Ohio for a $1,000 first-bet insurance offer to use on the NBA or NHL game of your choice.
BetMGM Ohio Offers New Players $1,000 First-Bet Insurance
Players in Ohio have access to one of the best launch promos in the state thanks to BetMGM Ohio. Any bettor who registers for an account will secure up to $1,000 in first-bet insurance, which means a loss will result in a site credit refund. Whether you want to bet on the Columbus Blue Jackets to cover the spread or the Denver Nuggets to take down the Los Angeles Clippers, you will either win a cash profit or get a second chance.
Some players will prefer approaching this promo offer with a relatively safe bet to maximize their chance of winning. In the NBA, the Utah Jazz are Thursday's heaviest money line favorite at -250. That means if you were to wager the full $1,000 on the Jazz, you'd win a $400 cash profit with a win. If the Jazz were to lose, you'd get back $1,000 in bet credits to use on other games. The other way to approach this promo is with a player prop that comes with longer odds, such as Luka Doncic to record a triple-double against the Boston Celtics at +400 odds. A $1,000 wager on that market would return $4,000 in cash winnings if he is successful.
One-Game Parlay Insurance Promos
As if first-bet insurance weren't enticing enough, players who sign up for a BetMGM Ohio account can also take advantage of one-game parlay insurance. Available in the promos section of the app, one-game parlay insurance will back a player's qualifying one-game parlay win bet credits if the wager settles as a loss. There are multiple iterations of this offer available for the NFL, NBA and NHL.
