This clause has a big effect. It safeguards the casino from massive, unexpected losses, but for a player, it can be a downer. Picture turning that $200 bonus balance into $5,000. Under these terms, you’d only retain $1,000 of it. That reality makes going after huge, long-shot wins with bonus money less appealing. Canadian players should be aware their potential payout has a firm limit, which changes the whole risk-reward balance of taking the offer.
