When Caesars Sportsbook unveiled its COVERS20X promotionAmerican Airlines Center on Tuesday, the betting world sat up straight.
The deal—20 separate 100% profit‑boost tokens for a single $1 wager—targets the October 22, 2025 showdown between the San Antonio Spurs and the Dallas Mavericks at the Dallas venue. Chris Holdren, CEO of Caesars Entertainment Corporation, said the offer is meant to "give new fans a taste of real‑value betting right out of the gate."
Why This Promo Matters
Sports betting in the United States is now a $30‑plus‑billion industry, and every October the market spikes as the NBA season tips off. A promotion that hands out 20 profit boosters in one go is rare—most operators bundle a single large bonus. By spreading the value across multiple bets, Caesars hopes newcomers will stay engaged for the full two‑week window the tokens remain active.
According to Covers.com, the promo’s odds floor of –10,000 (or longer) ensures the boosts are only usable on fairly safe bets, protecting the sportsbook from absurd upside while still feeling generous.
How the COVERS20X Offer Works
- Register a brand‑new account using promo code COVERS20X.
- Fund the account with at least a $10 deposit.
- Place any $1 real‑money wager on the Spurs‑Mavericks game.
- Receive 20 profit‑boost tokens, each worth a 100% increase on qualifying bets up to $25.
- Maximum possible extra profit per token: $2,500.
- All tokens expire 14 days after issuance—no extensions.
Even if the opening $1 bet loses, the tokens are credited automatically. Bettors can then apply them to straight bets, parlays, player props, or futures, but the $25 wager cap still applies.
Eligibility and Geographic Reach
The offer is open to bettors aged 21 or older who are physically located in any of 24 states plus Washington D.C., including Arizona, Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Mississippi, North Carolina, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia, and Wyoming.
Because the promotion is tied to a specific NBA event, “watch‑and‑bet” fans in those states can immediately test the product while the game is live.
Industry Reaction
"What Caesars is doing here is a textbook example of front‑loading value to lock in a user early," said Laura Chen, senior analyst at Sports betting research firm Betting Insights. "The 20‑token structure spreads risk for the operator while giving the bettor repeated chances to win.”
Some consumer advocates, however, caution newcomers to read the fine print. “The minimum odds requirement of -10,000 means you’re essentially limited to very safe bets,” noted Mark Delgado, director of the Consumer Gaming watchdog.
Impact on the NBA Betting Landscape
Last season’s “Bet $1, Get 20 Boosts” campaign on the Oklahoma City Thunder‑Houston Rockets opener generated roughly 12,000 new sign‑ups, according to internal data leaked to Covers.com. If the Spurs‑Mavericks promotion follows suit, Caesars could add another 10‑15 % to its quarterly new‑user growth.
For the teams themselves, increased betting volume can translate to higher revenue shares from league‑wide sportsbook partnerships, though the NBA monitors promotional activity closely to ensure integrity.
What’s Next for Caesars and Bettors?
Caesars has hinted at a follow‑up promotion tied to the upcoming NBA All‑Star Weekend in February 2026, potentially expanding token counts or raising the per‑bet maximum. Meanwhile, rivals like DraftKings and FanDuel are expected to roll out competing offers, likely tweaking token numbers to avoid a promotional arms race.
For a bettor who takes advantage of all 20 tokens on a series of modest parlays, the potential added profit could easily surpass $5,000—enough to fund a season ticket package for either Dallas or San Antonio.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the COVERS20X promo affect new bettors in eligible states?
New bettors who meet the $10 deposit threshold and place a $1 bet on the Spurs‑Mavericks game receive 20 profit‑boost tokens. Each token can double winnings on bets up to $25, giving newcomers a chance to earn up to $2,500 per token if they win on higher‑odds wagers.
What types of bets can I use the profit‑boost tokens on?
The tokens are versatile: they work on straight bets, parlays, player‑prop wagers, and even futures across any sport offered by Caesars Sportsbook, as long as each bet respects the $25 maximum stake and meets the –10,000 odds floor.
What happens if I try to claim the promo more than once?
Caesars’ Terms and Conditions are explicit: creating multiple accounts to reap the offer will trigger immediate account closure and forfeiture of all funds, according to the company’s compliance team.
Can the profit‑boost tokens be combined with other Caesars promotions?
