New players can use the BetMGM bonus code TRIBUNEMATCH to get up to $1,100 deposit match for NBA or any other sports betting on Thursday.

It’s a 20% deposit match, so you’d have to deposit $5,500 to get the full $1,100 in bonus bets. And there’s a 10x rollover on those bonus bets, meaning you need to wager 10x your bonus amount to unlock the full funds.

BetMGM also has two sport-specific promotions in addition to the overall deposit match offer. Thus, there are three options for new users to choose from depending on where they’re betting from:

  • BetMGM bonus code TRIBUNEMLB: This exclusive promotion, which is only live in Massachusetts and Ohio offers new users up to $200 in bonus bets when they place a $10 MLB moneyline wager.
  • BetMGM bonus code TRIBUNENBA: This NBA exclusive 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. This promotion is live in every legal BetMGM state except Ohio, Massachusetts, Nevada, New York and Washington D.C.
  • BetMGM bonus code TRIBUNEMATCH: This exclusive deposit match, which is legal in every BetMGM state except Ohio, Massachusetts, New York and Washington D.C., gives new users a deposit match up to $1,100.

In the paragraphs below, we’ll elaborate on some of the specifics of each of these promotions and preview some of the best bets for Thursday.

How to Bet Using Your BetMGM Offer on Thursday

The Celtics travel south to the State Farm Arena for a potential close out game on TNT against the Hawks.

This series has taken an interesting turn as most folks assumed Boston would make quick work of Atlanta. In the two Atlanta wins, the Hawks had at least five players in double figures and absolutely demolished the Celtics in the paint. In the Game 3 win, Atlanta had seven players in double figures (including a 32-point outing from Trae Young and a 25-point night from Dejounte Murray) and put up 54 points in the paint.

It was a similar story in the Game 5 win where the Hawks had five players in double figures, with Young notching a 38-point, 13-assist double-double. Additionally, the Hawks held the Celtics to just 31.6 percent from deep and shot 46.3 percent from three.

The Celtics have looked impeccable in the three series wins. They’ve dominated the paint, played excellent perimeter defense and capitalized on transition opportunities in the three wins.

However, one constant throughout the series in favor of the Hawks has been the turnovers. Boston has had more turnovers than Atlanta in every game except Game 2. The turnovers have allowed the Hawks to hang with them late in games.

There are some intriguing player props for Game 6 on Thursday. Dejounte Murray is a solid bet on points and rebounds, as he’s been chasing down the long rebounds recently and with Boston’s inconsistent shooting, there will be another opportunity for him to collect a few boards. Bet the over on his points and rebounds.

Trae Young has been a key for the Hawks. Look for him to go over on points and assists again.

Overall, the Celtics are seven-point favorites here with the total at 231. There is a worthwhile play on the under here. While both these teams can score when hot, they’ve struggled shooting throughout the series.

BetMGM promos, explained

BetMGM has a somewhat complex promotional situation. As mentioned above, there are currently three promotions for new users to choose from based on where they’re betting from and what sport they like to wager.

The first offer is an exclusive $1,100 deposit match, where users get 20% of their deposit in bonus bets. The second is an MLB exclusive that gives new users $200 in bonus bets when they place a $10 real-money wager. The final is an NBA-exclusive “Bet and Get” that gives new users $100 in bonus bets when they place a $10 real-money wager on any NBA playoff game.

The deposit match promotion is available in every legal BetMGM state except Massachusetts, Ohio, New York and Washington D.C. Players can access this promotion by clicking the module above and using the bonus code TRIBUNEMATCH at sign up.

The MLB exclusive gives new users $200 in bonus bets when they place a team moneyline wager of at least $10 and is live in every legal BetMGM state except New York and Washington D.C. New users can get this promotion when they use the bonus code TRIBUNEMLB at sign up.

Finally, BetMGM’s NBA exclusive is a little different as new users can get $100 in bonus bets when they place a $10 wager on any NBA playoff game. This offer is available for bettors in every legal BetMGM state except Massachusetts, Ohio, Nevada, New York and Washington D.C. New bettors can claim this promotion using the bonus code TRIBUNENBA at sign up.

Notably, all of these offers mention bonus bets in some way. These bonus bets can be used for any additional wager on the BetMGM platform but cannot be withdrawn or cashed out.

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 not distributed at a 1:1 ratio but rather proportionally based on the users qualifying bet. If a new user places a qualifying wager of $50 or more, they’ll get up to five bonus bets of equal value. Conversely, if a new user places a qualifying wager of less than $50, they’ll get one bonus bet equal to their initial stake.

If a user is getting $500 back in bonus bets, they’ll get five bonus bets equal to $100 each. If a new user is getting $1,000 back in bonus bets, they’ll get five bonus bets equal to $200 each.
