The 10 Best UFC 291 Sign-Up Bonus Offers & Promos for Poirier vs Gaethje 2

Updated:2024-05-03 06:33    Views:140

Saturday's UFC 291 main event will feature the awaited lightweight rematch between Dustin Poirier and Justin Gaethje.

Poirier is 29-7 and Gaethje 24-4 all-time. Poirier won the first fight in 2018 by KO in the fourth round.

The industry's leading sportsbooks each have their own unique offers available to new and existing bettors for UFC 291. We'll break the most important ones down for you below.

The Best UFC 291 Offers for New UsersFanDuel Sportsbook

Offer: Bet $5, Get $100 in Bonus Bets

States Available: AZ, CO, IL, IN, IA, KS, LA, MA, MD, MI, NJ, NY, OH, PA, TN, VA, WV, WY

It's the same deal at FanDuel Sportsbook, but with $100 in bonus value. The user could expect to receive the bonus bets anywhere within 72 hours after the first wager settles.

FanDuel will take bonus bets away if not used within 14 days.

BetMGM Sportsbook

Offer: Get a First Bet on the House of up to $1,000

Promo Code: TOPACTION

States Available: AZ, CO, IL, IN, IA, LA, MA, MD, MI, NJ, OH, PA, TN, VA, WV, WY

This is a first bet that BetMGM Sportsbook will reimburse new users for if it should lose.

We tell readers to bet their bankroll with these kinds of offers since it's all the more value you're getting back if it fails. But if the bet wins, that's a max payout for yourself you likely wouldn't have placed otherwise.

The threshold is up to $1,000 for your first bet at BetMGM. Bonus bets go away after 30 days.

Caesars Sportsbook

Offer: Get Reimbursed up to $1,250 if Your First Bet Loses

Promo Code: ACTION4FULL

States Available: AZ, CO, IL, IN, IA, KS, LA, MA, MD, MI, NJ, NY, OH, PA, TN, VA, WV, WY

Caesars Sportsbook's offer works the same as BetMGM, but with up to $1,250 of value to bet with your first wager.

When looking into a wager for the headliner, heed the advice from UFC expert Billy Ward, who thinks this is a fairly valued fight:

The point of all of this is to highlight the similarities between the pair. Remarkably, neither of them has a single split decision on his record, and the only 鈥渇luke鈥?outcome for either of them was Poirier鈥檚 win over Conor McGregor that saw McGregor鈥檚 leg snap. That was a rematch, though, of a fight Poirier dominated just six months prior.

All things considered, I could see a case for saying that this line should be a bit closer given all the similarities. However, the data on rematches more or less justifies Poirier鈥檚 favoritism.

bet365 Sportsbook

Offer: Bet $1+ and Get $200 in Bonus Bets Guaranteed

Promo Code: TOPACTION

States Available: CO, IA, NJ, OH, VA

If you're signing up for bet365 Sportsbook, you can stock $200 in bonus bets when a minimum $1 prop is placed on any prop for the match.

bet365 offers our聽favorite same game parlay features聽in the industry, which is one of several ways to pounce on bonus bets.

When it comes to taking advantage of a bonus bet from a sportsbook, we advise betting a longshot prop or stringing together a parlay. This is so because we want to bet high risk for better return value.

FanDuel Sportsbook

FanDuel's calls their offered odds boost the 'Dr Disrespect Boost,' which is the Poirier-Gaethje fight to end by KO/TKO. This jumped from -145 to +120 odds.

This is a considerable boost because this fight is expected to go the distance. Sean Zerillo broke down why in his UFC 291 main event preview:

I projected Dustin Poirier as a 58.2% favorite (-139 implied odds) in this fight, and I don鈥檛 see value on either side of the聽moneyline.

Typically, I would need -128 or better to back the favorite Poirier or +151 to back the underdog Gaethje, compared to my projected odds.

While this fight might start with an early feeling-out process, I expect the pace to eventually go nuclear and for both lightweights to find opportunities to hurt and finish an opponent less durable than their first matchup five years ago.

In the winning method market, Poirier by KO/TKO (projected +186, listed +210) stands out as a potential value bet. However, I wouldn鈥檛 recommend including that prop on anything beyond a round-robin ticket.

Bet the fight to end inside the distance instead.

BetMGM Sportsbook

BetMGM isn't offering any profit boosts or UFC 291-specific offers for Saturday, but they did open several special markets for the fight:
