You can click this link to begin signing up for an ESPN BET account and type in the ESPN BET promo code RGNEWS to sign up for $1,000 worth of first bet insurance.

What exactly does first bet insurance mean? It means if your first bet up to $1,000 results in a loss, you’ll be given back one bonus bet totalling the amount of your wager. For example, if you lost $30 on the Astros moneyline over the Rangers and lose, one $30 bonus bet is what ESPN BET will issue you back.

ESPN BET is one of the fastest-growing sportsbooks in the U.S. in large part due to their wide availability across AZ, CO, IL, IN, IA, KS, KY, LA, MA, MD, MI, NC, NJ, OH, PA, TN, VA, and WV.

Using Wednesday’s sporting slate to show how the ESPN BET promo code will ensure your first bet

Of Wednesday’s entire MLB slate, the game I’m focusing on is the Astros vs. Rangers. This is the third game in this series, with each team winning one thus far. ESPN BET favors the Astros with a moneyline of -130, while the Rangers are +110. This game has one of the highest totals markets of the day set at 8.5 runs.

I like this game to go over 8.5 runs as much as I like either team to win. That has less to do with the offenses, which combine for 8.76 runs per game. Instead, this is about the pitchers. Yusei Kikuchi might rank 15th in strikeouts amongst starting pitchers, but his 4.76 ERA ranks 60th. Jose Urena is a relief pitcher getting the start for Texas, and his ERA has been poor since July.

If I didn’t want to just wager the over on runs, I could make a parlay including under 1.5 hits for Jose Altuve. That two-leg parlay has +159 odds. Betting the maximum amount ESPN BET covers of $1,000 would win $1,588.70 if my parlay hits. If that parlay doesn’t hit, I’d get back one $1,000 bonus bet expiring in seven days.
