BetMGM Bonus Code WIREBG150: Score $150 in Bonus Bets for Travelers, MLB, UFC & More
Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy were among the stars who went straight from Oakmont Country Club to TPC River Highlands to play in this week's $20 million Travelers Championship and both were at or near the top of the Round 1 leaderboard. If you're thinking about making a profit yourself on the final PGA Tour Signature Event of the season, then it's in your best interest to check out the BetMGM bonus code WIREBG150 that gives you $150 in bonus bets just for winning a $10 first bet. Here's the scoop: If you're a new bettor playing in Colorado, Michigan, New Jersey, Pennsylvania or West Virginia, you're guaranteed three $50 bonus bets (plus your winnings) when you win your $10 first bet. If you're a new bettor in any other state, you get to create an account with the BetMGM bonus code SBWIRE that delivers a protected first bet up to $1,500. There aren't any bigger sportsbook promos with protection available. Ordinarily, you wouldn't expect so many big-name golfers to play the week after a major. But thanks to the lucrative nature of the Travelers Championship, it's more than worth it for the top guys to be in Connecticut this weekend. Scheffler, who was been ranked as the world's No. 1 golfer for 25 straight months, won last year's Travelers at 22-under-par. To check Scheffler's current odds (and everyone else's), download the BetMGM app — one of the nation's most comprehensive sports betting apps. You'll also find strong odds and specials on Major League Baseball, UFC Fight Night, the FIFA Club World Cup, the CONCACAF Gold Cup and much takes barely two minutes to get rolling.

BetMGM Bonus Code Promos: Get $150 in Bonus Bets or $1500 First-Bet Offer We're nearing the midpoint of the Major League Baseball season and there aren't many surprises at the top of the divisions. The New York Yankees, Detroit Tigers, Houston Astros, New York Mets, Chicago Cubs and Los Angeles Dodgers are riding high. Of these teams, the Mets are facing the fiercest challenge — and the Philadelphia Phillies can maintain the pressure in today's game that features Griffin Canning (6-3, 3.80 ERA) and hard-throwing rookie Mick Abel (2-0, 2.21) on the mound. Make sure to take a spin past BetMGM's MLB odds for today as well as futures bets. Did you see the unusual start time for UFC? Please note that Fight Night is more like Fight Afternoon because they're battling in Baku, Azerbaijan. The main event is an evenly matched showdown between light heavyweights Jamahal Hill (12-3) and Khalil Rountree Jr. (14-6). Hill, who was the division's champion just 16 months ago, ranks as UFC's No. 4 challenger while Rountree sits No. 7 on the list. Teams in FIFA's Club World Cup and CONCACAF's Gold Cup are jockeying for spots in the knockout round all over America. Today's highlighted matches include River Plate versus Monterrey at the Rose Bowl and the Gold Cup doubleheader in Houston (Canada vs. Curacao and Honduras vs. El Salvador).
