  Winnings may be voided for low-risk (hedge) betting

  Hedging bets to clear wagering with little risk does not count and can lead to the bonus and winnings being confiscated.

  Our analysis

  This is a standard anti-hedging rule, but the confiscation of winnings rather than simply discounting the bets makes it worth noting.
