You don’t need a code to claim the DraftKings welcome bonus. When you sign up via a DraftKings Ohio promo code link on this page in Ohio, the online sportsbook will offer the following: a $50 bonus bet when you make an initial deposit of $5 or more, plus a 20% match of that first deposit, good for up to $1,000 in bonus funds. In addition — if you didn’t claim a pre-launch promotion at DraftKings in Ohio — if you make a first wager of $5 or more, you’ll receive $200 in bonus bets.

This means that if you signed up and made an initial deposit of $100, you’d receive the $50 bonus bet plus $20 in matching bonus funds. If you then made a $10 moneyline bet on any of the Friday night NBA games or Saturday playoff games in the NFL or any other game, you’d receive another $200 in bonus bets regardless of whether your bet wins or loses.

To claim this promotion, you must be 21 or older and located in Ohio.

DraftKings Sportsbook preview: NBA and NFL action

The NBA has a busy slate on Friday evening, with nine games on the schedule. The first games tip off at 7 p.m. ET, including an Eastern Conference showdown as the Atlanta Hawks hit the road to take on the Indiana Pacers at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis.

Over in the NFL, it’s the first round of playoff games on Saturday. Up first in the NFC, the Seattle Seahawks travel to take on the San Francisco 49ers as one of the weekend’s biggest underdogs. Later in the day, the Los Angeles Chargers are on the road against the Jacksonville Jaguars in the AFC.

The Seahawks barely squeaked into the postseason with a little help from the Detroit Lions, who beat the Green Bay Packers on Sunday night to end the Packers’ season. Now, Seattle faces an uphill battle on the road against the league’s top defense. The 49ers suffered a blow earlier this season when starting quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo went down with a foot injury, but backup Brock Purdy has done everything the team has needed as it enters the postseason on a 10-game winning streak.

The Chargers may also have their hands full on the road this week, as they head into Jacksonville. The Jaguars beat an injured Chargers side on the road early in the season, and quarterback Trevor Lawrence seems to be turning into the playmaker the team hoped he’d become as the Jaguars have now won five straight.

DraftKings currently has the 49ers as 9.5-point favorites over the Seahawks, and the Chargers as two-point favorites over the Jaguars. The moneyline has the Seahawks at +390 and the 49ers at -490, and the total for the game is at 42.5. For the other game, the Jaguars are at +110, the Chargers are at -130, and the over/under is 47.5.
