BetMGM Ohio Bonus Code TOPACTION Earns $1,000 for NFL Week 17

Ohio bettors looking to legally bet for the first time can take advantage of BetMGM bonus code TOPACTION to earn a $1,000 first bet on the house.

What's that mean? If your first bet loses, you'll be refunded in bet credits equal to whatever you lost, up to $1,000. If your first bet wins, you keep the stake and profits.

This first bet can be used on any sport and any game, including NFL Week 17, college football bowl games and so much more.

Sports betting in Ohio has launched just in time for the Monday Night Football matchup between the Cincinnati Bengals and the Buffalo Bills — the most combined wins for a MNF matchup ever.

What Is a BetMGM Bet Credit?

So how do bet credits work? It's like the sportsbook spots you for the bet, and if it wins, you give back the bet, but keep the profits. BetMGM splits up its credits into any increment, so you can put $1 on one bet, $25 on another, or use all $100 at once.

Here’s an example. Say you have $200 in bet credits and you want to put it all on Ohio State +6.5 vs. Georgia.

You don’t have to place all $200 in bets at once — you can split them up across several different bets. It’s just easiest to use one big example.

• If Ohio State covers the spread, you keep the profits from that bet, but you don’t keep the bet credits.
• If Ohio State loses, you end up with nothing.

We always recommend you make plus-money wagers with your bet credits, so taking spreads actually isn’t the best idea. You’re getting much more expected value, since you don’t keep the initial stake. While you may not hit your bet credits as often at +500 since those outcomes are less likely, it’s mathematically optimal and you’ll make money in the long run.
