DraftKings Sportsbook is now live in Massachusetts. And it’s offering new bettors in the state a three-part promo.

First, new customers get a $50 bonus bet if they deposit at least $5. They’ll also get a 20% first deposit match up to $1,000. And they can claim a bet $5 to get $200 in bonus bets promo, as well.

The Boston Bruins travel to play the Detroit Red Wings in the second of back-to-back games against Detroit. Boston won at home 3-2 on Saturday, and it looks to make it two in a row over the Red Wings on Sunday.

If Massachusetts sports bettors are looking for a way to use their $50 bonus bet credit, this Bruins game could be it.

DraftKings Sportsbook promo in Massachusetts: $50 bonus bet on the Bruins

The terms and conditions for the $50 bonus bet are simple. Once you’ve signed up and registered for your DraftKings Massachusetts account, just deposit at least $5 using a debit card, online bank transfer or any other approved deposit method.

After that’s completed, you’ll receive a $50 bonus bet credit in your DraftKings account. You must use the whole $50. You can’t split the bonus bet into several smaller bonus bets.

Then, to use the $50 bonus bet, you simply click on the Bruins vs. Red Wings game like you normally would in your DraftKings app. You’ll see a Bonus Bet option on your betslip once you’ve selected your wager. Check the check box next to Bonus Bet and the $50 credit will be used for your Bruins bet.

Remember: With bonus bets, you only get paid out winnings — not winnings plus the original bet. So a winning bet on +100 odds with a $50 bonus bet would get a $50 payout, not $100. This is true with all Massachusetts sportsbook bonus bets.

Bruins at Red Wings odds Sunday

As of Sunday morning (remember Daylight Savings!), the Bruins were getting -235 moneyline odds against Detroit (+215). Boston had +100 odds on the 1.5-goal puck line (Red Wings -120). And the total was set at six goals, with both the Over and Under getting -110 odds.

Here’s a theoretical Same Game Parlay bet and what the payout would be using the $50 bonus bet.

  • Bruins moneyline (-235)
  • Over six goals (-110)

That two leg parlay has +172 odds. So, if the SGP won using the $50 bonus bet, we’d get an $86.07 payout.
