Is BetMGM Legal in Alabama?
Because BetMGM adheres to strict state-by-state regulatory practices, the site opts not to permit real money betting from Sweet Home Alabama. This doesn't mean there are not other options. Sites like BetAdrian are available with lucrative welcome bonus options including 200% on your initial deposit exclusive to Gambling911 readers. Additionally, there are local bookies that are mostly discovered through referrals.
Sites like BetAdrian, which operate under an international license, along with local bookmakers stress the need for anonymity, security, a willingness to accept winning players and these businesses never ask for a social security number. These are the only options available to those living in Alabama. One downside is that none of these operations are able to offer an app. All betting is via browser-based websites, which are totally safe and user-friendly regardless.
January 2023
Alabama Crimson Tide Basketball - The Tide were on absolute fire coming into the later part of January. As of January 20, Alabama was on a hot seven game win streak. They started the season 9-1 Straight Up and had just two losses on the season for a 16-2 record.
As of January 20, 2023, Alabama promised the third shortest payout odds to win the NCAA Men's College Basketball Championship at 10-1 odds most books (payout $1000 on a $100 bet).
The Tide haven't just been red hot Straight Up, they owned an 11-6 record Against The Spread as well. In fact, they had covered in their six games ahead of their Saturday January 31 meeting vs. Missouri.
The Tide even managed a win just days after one of their former players was charged with capital murder.
Darius Miles remained behind bars in Tuscaloosa for his alleged role in the death of Birmingham mother Jamea Harris.
“I did see some guys break down postgame,” Alabama head coach Nate Oats said after beating Vanderbilt 78-66. “I think they’ve been bottling some stuff up. We’ve got a job to do. We’ve got to get to the game. We got to the game and took care of business, and then it's almost like a big relief. The game’s over, and we can let out a sigh of relief.”
Auburn Tigers Basketball - The Tigers odds of winning the NCAA Men's College Basketball Championship were set at 40-1 to 100-1 depending on the book. Auburn also owned an impressive record entering the final week in January with just three losses. In fact, the Tigers started the season on an 8-game win streak. They had won six of their last seven games ahead of a January 21 meeting versus South Carolina.
Unlike the Tide, however, Auburn has not been particularly profitable for sports bettors this season as their record Against The Spread came in at 8-10.
