Bet on These Illinois Teams

Bet on the NFL with the BetMGM Illinois Promo

The NFL Draft is right around the corner and you can use your BetMGM Illinois promo to bet on the draft, or you can take a chance and bet a future.

And the Bears, looking increasingly likely of having a breakout season, may be a perfect opportunity to back your hometown Chicago Bears without a worry with the $1,000 First Bet offer from BetMGM.

Bet on the Bears

The Bears took a big step forward last season and after a big offseason loaded with solid acquisitions, and a trade of the #1 overall pick, appear primed to make a playoff run this season.

With Rodgers out of the picture in the NFC North, the Bears have a real shot to win the division and you can get an excellent price of (+325) on BetMGM.

Bet on the NBA with the BetMGM Illinois Promo

The NBA playoffs are underway and you can bet any game or future left this season for your BetMGM Illinois promo.

Bet on the Bulls

The Bulls fell short in the second play-in against the Heat, so in order to bet on the Bulls with your BetMGM Illinois promo you’ll have to wait until next season — or this year’s NBA Draft.

The season is still going so you’ll be limited in your options for NBA draft props until the season is over; however, BetMGM will surely release a number of props and futures as the draft gets closer.

Bet on the MLB with the BetMGM Illinois Bonus

The MLB made some massive rule changes in the offseason, and the product feels like it has been an improvement. Both Illinois MLB teams have an interesting season ahead, and you can use your $1,000 first bet offer to bet any MLB regular season game this year.

Bet on the Cubs

The North Siders have started the season hot and they’re looking to make some noise this season. For your $1,000 first bet offer, you should try to find the Cubs as a middling underdog to stretch as much profit from your risk-free bet.

The Cubs are currently a big underdog to win the NL Central, but they are live dogs in a weak division. At (+650), it could be a ton of value for your BetMGM Illinois first bet offer.

Bet on the White Sox

The White Sox are in a similar boat as the Cubs through the first chunk of the year, but they have all the talent in the world to get into the playoffs. I don’t feel overly confident in betting the White Sox to win the division at (+700), but the option is there.

If using your first bet offer on the White Sox, I’d recommend targeting a single game in a good spot rather than looking at the futures.

Bet on the NHL with the BetMGM Illinois Promo

The NHL Playoffs are one of the most exciting events in sports and you can use your BetMGM Illinois promo to bet on any of the NHL PLayoff games, or any futures you see value in for the remainder of the NHL season.

Bet on the Blackhawks

The Blackhawks are in the lottery hunt after trading away Patrick Kane at the deadline and are not in the postseason.

If you’re looking to use your BetMGM Illinois promo, you’ll be limited to waiting until next season or betting on the various NHL Draft props offered on the BetMGM Sportsbook.

Can You Use the BetMGM Illinois Promo Bet on Local College Teams?

No, due to a state gaming regulation ban you are not able to place wagers on NCAA teams located in Illinois.

Unlike a couple of other states, this does not extend to events that take place in Illinois. So for NCAA tournament and neutral site games, or any other reason an event would take place in Illinois not featuring one of the many colleges in Illinois.
