Hey Illinois bettors and sports fans — in case you didn't hear, we've got some great news … There's no longer a requirement to physically be at a casino to make your first bet at a sportsbook, which means you can register and bet 100% online and through your phone.
In other words, what are you waiting for?! Here's how you can land an extra $750 in your sportsbook accounts to use on tonight's Cubs game.
DraftKings Sportsbook
Offer: 100% first-bet match, up to $500

- Who's it for? New users
DraftKings is officially up and running in Illinois and bettors in one of our greatest sports states can take advantage of a great promo from the get-go.
Here's the deal: once you register and deposit, you're going to be antsy to make your first bet. But, you're going to want to make that a carefully calculated one, as DraftKings will match that bet in the form of free bets.
You bet $100 on the Cubs — you get $100 in free bets, whether that bet original bet wins or loses. You bet $20, you get $20. You bet $500, you get $500. Do you need more examples? Because I can give them if need be.
The best part is that these free bets only need to be rolled over 1x, which means you can turn them into withdrawable cash pretty darn quickly.

At BetRivers, the other sportsbook in Illinois that's up and running, you can get more free money just by depositing.
Deposit $100, get $100 in bonus funds instantly. In other words, you can bet with twice as much money as you actually put in. Deposit $50, get $50. Deposit $250, get $250. You probably understand the examples by now.
These bonus funds also only need to be rolled over 1x. The days of absurd rollovers are … over! If you can manage to not lose all your bets whilst rolling over, you'll be rolling around in cash.
Whether you're depositing a little or a lot, it's always nice to play with double your bankroll.
