Which Sportsbooks to Play in Ohio?    

Ohio’s state government has not legalized sportsbooks, card games, and online casinos yet. It is expected to do so around the beginning of next year as Governor Mike DeWine signed the corresponding bill at the end of 2021. Once online sportsbooks and gambling operators launch, here are the best places at which you will be able to play.

DraftKings

As one of the best-known Daily Fantasy Sports platforms, DraftKings has made a name for itself in Ohio. New users who already play DFS will be eligible for a deposit match. They operate platforms across the country and allow bets on practically every sport you can imagine.

Caesars

Caesars and Lineups partnered to offer new users some of the best bonuses and promotions in the market. Caesars offers a deposit bonus to first-time users in some states. This may be the case in Ohio when they set up shop here.

BetRivers

While no firm date has been set, insiders anticipate BetRivers to open in Ohio on January 1, 2023, with a welcome bonus. To claim it, you enter the corresponding BetRivers Ohio bonus code when you register or when you make the first deposit. The operator will match it by 100% up to $250.

There is a 1x playthrough requirement to meet before you can take advantage of the bonus. For example, you’ll get a $200 bonus if you wager $200. The odds must be -200 or longer for your bet to fulfill the requirement. BetRivers’ code is valid for 30 days from signing up or making your deposit.

FanDuel

FanDuel is another platform many bettors in Ohio are already familiar with. Like DraftKings users, existing customers of FanDuel can move their DFS accounts over quickly once they decide to sign up for sports betting.

Among the sports betting options are lesser-known sports like handball and cricket. FanDuel has appealing weekly promotions and no shortage of events to wager on outside popular league seasons.

BetOnline

If you’re looking for a strong NBA betting selection in Ohio, look no further than BetOnline. You can place a wager on the draft, future games, or the outcome of the entire season.

BetOnline also has solid coverage for the MLB, NHL, NFL, and other major leagues and golf and tennis. The site has a casino and a racebook too.

Bovada

Bovada is strongest when it comes to betting on live games, with high-quality streaming for most sports. You can create a customized bet with their prop bet tool. Bovada users can bet on major leagues, golf, soccer, and college sports. Less popular tournaments and sports like snooker and handball are also available.
