General Sports Book Rules

  1. BetMGM reserves the right to refuse any wager, prior to its acceptance.
  2. BetMGM will accept wagers with a minimum stake of $0.50 and a maximum stake of $10 million on all sports. BetMGM reserves the right to establish lower maximum wager amount per patron and for any event, segment of event, or wager type. Maximum payouts limits shall only be established through limiting the amount wagered and cannot be applied to reduce a winning wager amount.
  3. BetMGM mobile wagering application displays real time lines, current odds, and potential payouts when placing wagers. Patrons will be prompted with a confirmation message that selections are correct prior to the selection of the ‘place wagers’ button. Line change notifications may occur at any time during the wager placement process. The system by default accepts more favorable odds and the player must acknowledge or decline any less favorable odds changes. This setting can be adjusted by the player to accept all odds changes for fastest play or acknowledge all odds changes for a more conscientious play.
  4. For online wagers, if a patron made an inadvertent bet in patron's account due to an error (e.g., inadvertent multiple identical bets), patron must inform BetMGM within 15 minutes of any bet patron placed for BetMGM to consider appropriate adjustments to be made to patron's account.
  5. Wagers accepted will not be able to be changed or cancelled by the player upon confirmation of the successfully placed wager.
  6. BetMGM reserves the right to add, change or delete the payout ratio limits.
  7. There are no player-initiated cancelled of any wager after the event has started.
  8. Wagers may be accepted at terms other than those displayed within the main sports book rules or individual sports wagering rules. Specific stipulations will be displayed within the inventory section of an event page.
  9. BetMGM reserves the right to add, change or delete the BetMGM Sports House Rules, subject to regulatory approval.
  10. BetMGM will not accept the past posting of wagers or wagers on an event where the outcome is already known. In such cases that an error has occurred to accept a past posting, the wager may be cancelled upon approval from the Commission.
  11. BetMGM will accept wagers on currently posted terms unless otherwise posted.
  12. BetMGM prohibits wagers on any single sport or athletic event in which any New York collegiate team or individual competing through a New York collegiate program (a “prohibited collegiate participant”) participates regardless of where the event takes place. A prohibited sports event does not include the other games of a collegiate sport or athletic tournament in which a New York collegiate team participates.
  13. If a prohibited collegiate participant finishes as the winner of a futures market, the second place team in that market (or highest placing team that is not prohibited) will be considered the winner for purposes of settling the futures market (i.e. Syracuse wins the NCAA men’s basketball championship, the team they beat in the final will be considered the champions).
