BetMGM is one of the go-to sports betting apps in several legal sports betting markets. Now, Washington D.C. officially joined a growing list of states that have recently launched the popular online sports betting platform including Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Michigan.
BetMGM CEO Adam Greenblatt said, “Launching in Washington, D.C. at Nationals Park sets the stage for our plans to expand BetMGM within the region, as we’ve already seen great success in Virginia.”
MGM Resorts owns MGM National Harbor in Maryland, which sits minutes away from DC. Also, BetMGM is operating in Virginia, which is just over the DC southern border. The BetMGM DC sportsbook is going to be a great success as the majority of bets placed will be by commuters from Maryland and Virginia while in DC.
Bettors can now create a BetMGM account, view updated odds, make a deposit, place bets, and make a withdrawal anywhere in Washington D.C. However, you must be within a two-block radius of Nationals Park to place a bet. Meaning, BetMGM uses the latest geolocation technology to determine eligibility. Hence, sports fans must step into the Bettor’s Box, a specified area in and around Nationals Park, to bet online.
DC bettors can advantage of an excellent $600 risk-free BetMGM promotion available for new users.
