Top Sportsbook Promos, Offers and Profit Boosts Today
DraftKings HomerFest
Dinger Tuesday has some competition. DraftKings entered the home run sweepstakes on Tuesdays with their HomerFest promo, something that immediately replaced Dinger Tuesday as the best home run promo on the market. In fact, outside of a specific profit boost where you can add 30% to a single play, this is the best overall promo across all books. Dinger Tuesday pays you back in homers, but it’s capped at five and has to be the game you already bet.
That’s where HomerFest takes a turn for the better, giving back far more than just our money. We still choose our fighter; selecting the best option for a home run that night. From there, we get paid back $1 to $2 per home run hit across ALL of Major League Baseball. Yes, you read that right. The more long balls, the more we get back. The beauty of this promo — unlike Dinger Tuesday — is that this is not capped. You earn so long as the ball flies out of the park. It’s a fantastic way to still bet a home run play while ensuring a rather large bonus bet if it misses.
HomerFest has taken over DraftKings, and rightfully so. It’s far superior to any other home run promo running right now, outside of one solo play mentioned below. As far as getting money back without hitting a play, it’s hard to find anything better in any book. Make sure you get in now before the next one so you aren’t stuck betting a capped promo.
If you haven’t signed up for DraftKings Sportsbook, you can get the following promo: Get up to $300 in bonus bets (bet $5 and get $150 in bonus bets in Connecticut, Massachusetts and New York)! Check out our DraftKings promo page to see which states have access to these promos.
Solo Profit Boost
If you are a +EV bettor or just like to gamble for fun, anything between — the solo profit boost is by far your best weapon against the books. These are usually capped as defense mechanisms by the books, but make no mistake: If you are getting a solo profit boost — to be used on a single play — use it and max out the bet. Again, that “max” is most likely going to be a smaller percentage of what you normally bet since the books will cap it, but it’s worth it.
Most of the time, books offer a 25% to 50% profit boost for parlays or same-game parlays. Those are traps designed to get you to bet plays with far less probability of hitting. FanDuel offers a couple of recurring profit boosts designed for solo plays, even though they aren’t advertised as such. They typically offer a 30% WNBA profit boost — again, best suited for a solo play. We see 30% Pitching Ninja boosts pop up throughout the MLB season, as those will rotate to the NFL and NBA come the fall.
DraftKings also matches these promos with their own twist. They have a popular 33% WNBA profit boost for ANY — that’s the key — market. Both books have added home run profit boosts away from Tuesday, where they offer anywhere from a 30% to 50% profit boost on any home run. Again, even on a longer shot of a play, adding any percentage to increase your payout will make that bet +EV (mostly all of the time).
Top Introductory Sportsbook Promo Today
There are a few intro offers that stand out among the rest of their peers, notably offering anywhere from $1,000 to $1500 back in bonus bets. There’s a major distinction between what BetMGM offers and what other books like Caesars return. As far as BetMGM’s offer, it gets no better than signing up, depositing, then betting anywhere from $10 to $1,500 — only to get that back in bonus bets if it misses.
While other books are also interested in a similar return, Caesars and ESPN BET come to mind. Most books return this as a single bonus, meaning if your first bet were $1,000 on Caesars and it missed, you would get a $1,000 bonus to be used on a single bet. That can be tough for people trying to double up their bankroll at least on an introductory bet. The best part about the BetMGM offer is getting it back in increments, which allows you to pick and choose spots without having to feel pressured about another large bet.
Besides BetMGM’s top offer, we also see a cool option from bet365 for all new bettors. If you haven’t signed up for bet365 yet, you have a choice of two different intro offers — but can only choose one. The first is a similar bet insurance where you get your first bet back up to $1,000. The second choice is a little easier to manage, especially for a lower bankroll or unit size, as you bet $5 and immediately get $150 back in bonus bets. We aren’t dependent on the bet even winning; it’s just a quick way to turn $5 into $150!
