With respect to a bonus which you have been granted, if you have registered to a future poker tournament which has not taken place and/or you have placed a bet using Available Funds on any sports event which has not been settled, you will only be able to use your Restricted Funds following the conclusion of the poker tournament which you have registered for and/or the bet using Available Funds on the sports event has been settled (as applicable).

    11. Your account is made up of both Available Funds (which may also be referred to on the website as "Cash Balance" or "Deposit Balance") and Restricted Funds (which may also be referred to on the website as "Bonus Balance"). Your Restricted Funds are the total of bonus funds that have not yet met the wagering requirement/bonus points requirement (as applicable) and any winnings associated with such bonus funds. Your Available Funds are those funds that you have deposited, and any winnings derived from such funds as well as any bonus funds that have met the applicable wagering requirements/bonus points requirements (as applicable). Available Funds can be: (i) used in any applicable game; or (ii) withdrawn at any time in accordance with the Withdrawal Policy.

    15. If you make a withdrawal request, you will forfeit all of your Restricted Funds (which includes without limitation Free Bet Tokens, Tournament Tickets free spins, FreePlay and jackpot vouchers) and any related winnings with respect to such which have not been converted to Available Funds.
