The BetMGM bonus code TRIBUNEMATCH generates a hefty deposit match for new users. The sportsbook will match new users’ deposits up to $1,100.
Since this is a 20 percent deposit match offer, new users need to wager up to $5,500 to access the full deposit match. There is also a 10x rollover bonus so users will need to wager 10 times their bonus amount to get the total funds.
So if you put in $1,000, you’ll get $200 in bonus bets. If you put in $2,000, you’ll get $400.
Beyond just the deposit match promotion, which is currently available in 17 states, BetMGM offers two other, sport-specific promotions that are available in the same number of states. In total, there are three promotions for new users to choose from:
- BetMGM bonus code TRIBUNEMLB: This exclusive promotion offers new users up to $200 in bonus bets in Massachusetts and Ohio when they place a $10 MLB moneyline wager. Other states will get $100 in bonus bets instead of $200.
- BetMGM bonus code TRIBUNENBA: This NBA promotion is similarly structured, as it gives new users up to $100 in bonus bets when they place a $10 moneyline bet on any NBA playoff game in most states. Mass. and Ohio will get $200.
- BetMGM bonus code TRIBUNEMATCH: This exclusive deposit match, which is legal in every BetMGM state except New York and Washington D.C., gives new users a deposit match up to $1,100.
We’ll explain the relevant conditions and preview some of the best bets for Thursday in the paragraphs below.
How to bet using the BetMGM offer on Thursday
Denver Nuggets vs. Phoenix Suns
The Nuggets look to close out the Suns on the road and advance to the Western Conference Finals in this Thursday night matchup on ESPN.
The home teams are undefeated so far in this series. Denver won Game 5 by jumping out to a hefty first-quarter lead and putting up an impressive 39 points in the third quarter. Despite the Suns solid effort to end the game, it wasn’t enough.
That game served as a microcosm for the series as a whole. One team will land a haymaker and the other will find a way to respond, either in the following quarter or the following game.
The oppositional styles have made for enjoyable games, with the Suns looking to run the floor and score in transition while the Nuggets aim to slow things down and have Jokic work through the offense.
Aaron Gordon has been put in a tough situation this series. Not only does he have to matchup against Kevin Durant defensively but he has the Durantula on him on the offensive side of the court as well. Gordon is heavily reliant on the inside game to get his offense going, converting dunks and layups to get in rhythm before he finds his range, so the lengthy wingspan of KD has posed some problems.
Most books have him at 20.5 for points and rebounds in this one, a mark which he’s failed to hit in all but one of the games during this series. Bet the under on Gordon here as he’ll have a tough time get warm on offense with Durant guarding him.
Overall, the Suns are 2.5-point favorites with the total at 226. The total is a little high at 226 so there’s not much room for a play. Back the Suns on the moneyline at home here as this series will go to seven games.
BetMGM promos, explained
Since BetMGM currently has three different promotion options, signing up can be a bit overwhelming for new users. The deposit match, which as noted is currently available in 17 states, gives users 20 percent of their deposit in bonus bets — capping at $1,100. The NBA and MLB promotions give new users $100 in bonus bets when they place a moneyline wager on either an NBA playoff game or an MLB team.
Currently, the deposit match is available in every legal BetMGM state except New York and Washington D.C. New users can easily claim this offer by clicking on the modules above and signing up with the bonus code TRIBUNEMATCH.
The baseball exclusive gives new users $100 in bonus bets when they place a team moneyline wager of at least $10. Similar to the other BetMGM promotions, this offer is legal in every BetMGM states except Massachusetts, Ohio, New York and Washington D.C. New players can easily sign up with the bonus code TRIBUNEMLB.
Finally, BetMGM’s NBA promotion offers new users $100 in bonus bets when they place a real-money wager of at least $10 on any playoff game. This offer is also available in every legal BetMGM state except New York and Washington D.C. New users can deploy the bonus code TRIBUNENBA when signing up to claim this offer. In Ohio and Mass., you’ll get $200 instead of $100.
As readers will have likely noticed, all of these offers mention bonus bets in some capacity. All three promotions gives users varying amounts of bonus bets based on how much they wager. Notably though, bonus bets function as credits for additional wagers but cannot be withdrawn or cashed out and are only valid for one wager.
Additionally, any bonus bets earned from these promotions will be distributed to a new user’s account within 24 hours and will remain valid for up to seven days after distribution.
Critically, bonus bets are distributed proportionally based on the user’s initial stake, rather than a 1:1 ratio.
For example, if a new user puts a $50 or more cash wager, they’ll get up to five bonus bets of equal value. However, if a new users places a cash wager of $50 or less, they’ll get on bonus bet equal to their original stake.
So, if the user is getting $200 in bonus bets returned, they’ll get two bonus bets equal to $100. If a user is getting $1,000 returned, they’ll get five bonus bets worth $200 each.
