DraftKings NBA Opening Week Promotions for PA and NJ users

For those of you who are unaware, from time to time DraftKings feels bad about taking all of our money week after week, and decides to give back to the gambling community. Throughout the season, myself and The Phifth Quarter will be here to make sure you are aware of these momentous occasions well in advance, to take advantage of them. Here is the great part about these promotions though, unlike my “can’t lose” parlays you will see throughout the year- these bets actually can’t lose! So it is a good way to build up the money in your DraftKings account with virtually no risk at all. Without further ado, let’s get into the NBA opening week DraftKings promotions for our Sixers. There is one for users located in NJ, CO, IN, IA, IL, TN, or WV, and a separate one for PA users. A user located in PA can only wager on the promo specifically for PA, and can only place the bet if they are physically in PA. Same applies for the promotion in the other states. At the end, there is another great promo for all users, so make sure to read all the way until the bottom.

Opening night promo for users in NJ, CO, IN, IA, IL, TN, or WV is as follows:

+75 point spread. “Starting on 12/16, DraftKings Sportsbook will offer new and existing users an odds boost to use on any team’s point spread to be boosted to +75 on 12/22. The mechanics of the offer are identical for both new and existing users except that new users have a max bet of $50 and existing users have a max bet of $25.” The odds for this spread is +100. What does this mean? Basically once you opt-in to the promo, if you are a new user you could bet up to $50, or an existing user you could bet up to $25, that the team you choose will not lose by more than 75 points. I.e. if you opt in and place the wager on the Nets, the only way you would lose is if the Nets lost to the Warriors by 76 points or more. Spoiler alert: they won’t. This is free money- take it. If you do not have a DraftKings account to take advantage of this killer promo, be sure to sign up using the link attached in this post. The other terms to this deal can be found below.

Don’t worry PA folks, you’ll get your free money too. Joel Embiid over 7.5 points. “As an alternative to the +75 point spread offer above, we will also be running a boost for Joel Embiid to score over 7.5 points in the Wizards vs 76ers game on 12/23. This is for new and existing PA users only.” This is a max $25 bet. What this means is that as long as Embiid scores 8 points or more against the Wizards on Wednesday, your bet will hit. The odds are also +100, so if you bet $25 you will make $25. Again, this is free money. Opt-in and take advantage of this awesome promo. You have my word, Embiid will score 8 points against Thomas Bryant, in his first game without another center next to him for 20+ minutes of the game.
