BetMGM has expanded its popular Second Chance promotion to include NBA and NHL betting, following its success during the NFL season. The promotion offers bettors a risk-free opportunity on specific player prop bets.

For NBA games, the promotion runs every Friday through the regular season. Bettors who wager on a player to score the first field goal will receive their stake back in cash if that player scores the second field goal instead.

The NHL version launches January 8 and runs every Wednesday during the regular season. Similarly, bettors will get their stake refunded if their chosen player scores the second goal instead of the first.

This expansion follows significant success in NFL betting, where BetMGM reported a 110% increase in first touchdown wagers during the 2024 season with this promotion.

The offer is particularly attractive for NHL betting, where first goal scorer odds typically range from +900 to +1600, offering potentially substantial returns. This "insurance policy" could help attract more bettors to hockey wagering, traditionally less popular than other major sports.

Key Features:

• NBA: Available Fridays
• NHL: Available Wednesdays
• Refund paid in withdrawable unrestricted funds
• Applies to straight bets only
• Valid through regular season

The Second Chance promotion provides a safety net for prop bets, which are increasingly popular among sports bettors due to their typically favorable odds and straightforward nature.
