The world’s sports media giant, ESPN, has branched out into the world of sports betting with an increasingly popular sports betting site, ESPN BET.
You can unlock a $1,000 First Bet Reset when you sign up with the ESPN BET promo code CTNEWS. Much like similarly styled promotions at other sportsbooks, this offer dolls out bonus bets based on your initial cash stake if your wager loses.
Say you put down a $175 moneyline wager and lose, you’d then get $175 in bonus bets broken up in multiple bonus bets. With this offer, you’re covered up to $1000.
Use the hyperlinked offer above or the module below to sign up with ESPN BET.

Wagering with ESPN BET
Bet insurance offers are a great way for new customers to test out sports betting. Typically, there’s no wager requirement so you can bet as much or as little as you’d like. Since you’ll only earn bonus bets if you lose, you can maximize your potential profit with a bet on an underdog market. If it hits, you’ll get a substantial profit and if you lose, you’ll recover the value of your cash stake as bonus bets — up to five.
Say you put down a $185 cash stake on the Oilers moneyline in Game 1 of the NHL Finals at +115:
- If that bet hits, you’d earn $212.75 in profit plus you’d keep the original cash stake
- If that bet lost, you’d get $185 in multiple bonus bets credited to your account
That said, you’re not limited to a wager on the NHL Finals. For example, if you want to try your luck on the Mavericks moneyline at +200 with the same stack, you’d pull in $370 with a winning bet.
