Preakness Coupon Event: Free Casino Chips!

by Bodog Casino | May 11 2009

If there's one moment when horse racing regains its mainstream status it's when the Kentucky Derby finally draws near.

People start saving up all their cash, doing crazy research on all the top thoroughbreds, and buying a whole bunch of hats that would otherwise put you on one of those "bad" fashion lists. All to watch horses compete in "the most exciting two minutes in sports."

Yeah, just two minutes - with a bunch of endless NBC filler of course. This year's Derby stumped every horse expert on the block. The whole thing was won, handily, by an underdog horse called Mine That Bird. Those who had the hooves to bet on the long shot received a $103.20 payoff for a $2 bet.

And you know what the funny thing is? After that uncanny race most people won't venture near another big race until next year. Little do they know there are more huge races to come; two more in fact: the Preakness Stakes and the Belmont Stakes. And if Mine That Bird is able to capture both these races he'll have the coveted Triple Crown.

The Preakness Stakes is coming up next on May 16th, and like the Derby, Bodog Casino gamers have a chance to profit off of the horse racing event. Bodog is giving away $50 in free Casino chips between now and the next race.

Getting hooked up with the chips is easy: Sign in or open a free Bodog account. Click here to redeem your coupon and enter the code: PREAKNESS. Deposit $50 and purchase casino chips and you be handed another $50 in chips instantly.

Trust us, it'll seem like an eternity until Mine That Bird can attempt to win part two of the Triple Crown. A little Blackjack, Craps, Roulette or Video Poker will make the next week filled with pregame filler seem like hours.
