Tonight's hockey quarterfinals and college basketball slate offers prime betting opportunities with the BetMGM bonus code SI1500. New users can claim up to $1,500 back in bonus bets if their first wager loses, making it an ideal time to join the action. This welcome offer requires the promo code SI1500 and is available for Wednesday, Feb. 18 sportsbook promos.

How the BetMGM bonus code SI1500 offer works for tonight's hockey and basketball games

The BetMGM bonus code SI1500 provides new users with protection on their first bet up to $1,500. If you place your initial wager on USA vs. Sweden or Canada vs. Czechia in the hockey quarterfinals and lose, BetMGM returns your stake in bonus bets. The same protection applies to college basketball matchups like UConn vs. Creighton or BYU at Arizona.

Key terms for this promotion include:

• Minimum $10 deposit required to activate the bonus code SI1500.
• First bet protection up to $1,500 in bonus bets if your wager loses.
• Wagers over $50 receive five bonus bets worth 20% of the original stake each.
• Wagers under $50 receive one bonus bet equal to the stake amount.
• Bonus bets expire seven days after issuance.

For example, if you bet $500 on Team USA to defeat Sweden and they lose, you would receive five $100 bonus bets totaling $500. If you wagered $1,000 on UConn to cover the spread against Creighton and lost, you'd get five $200 bonus bets worth $1,000 total. Winners keep their original winnings plus the stake, while bonus bet winnings exclude the bonus bet amount itself.
