General Bonus Terms and Conditions

As used herein "Casino" means Caesars Interactive Entertainment (CIE) DBA WSOP.com.

Terms and conditions for any WSOP.com bonus are to be read in conjunctions with the WSOP.com Terms of Service http://www.wsop.com/legal/terms-conditions-nv/ . In the event of a conflict between the Terms of Service and the specific terms herein, the specific terms herein shall prevail.

GENERAL RULES:

1. The Casino reserves the right to limit any bonus to one per player at our sole discretion.

2. This Bonus Policy applies to all bonus or promotional funds received in excess of regular funds.

3. At our sole discretion, we may amend or modify the terms of any bonus promotion.

4. Players may be required to submit a claim for any bonus they are offered. Failure to claim an offered bonus and/or provide a valid email address, if one is required, may render such bonus offer void.

5. We will deposit all bonuses into a player's account within seventy-two (72) hours of the player becoming eligible to receive them.

6. "Pending Bonuses" are bonus funds awarded in a restricted state that may not be accessed nor wagered with, but are released into a player's real-money bankroll incrementally as he accumulates Action Player Points ("APPs"). Unless otherwise stated in a bonus' Specific Terms, $10.00 in bonus funds will be released into a player's bankroll for every 100 APPs earned. No bonus funds are released for APPs earned that only partially fulfil an incremental APP threshold.

7. "Immediate Bonuses" are bonus funds that are awarded to a player in a restricted state and may be wagered immediately upon grant. Unless otherwise stated in a bonus' Specific Terms, all Immediate Bonuses, and winnings generated with wagers placed with such funds, may be withdrawn only after a player has collected 2.5 Bonus Points per every $1 of the received bonus amount. For example, a player must first accumulate 25 Bonus Points before withdrawing a bonus totaling $10.

8. An explanation as to how APPs are accumulated can be found here.

9. In the event that we, in our sole discretion, determine that a player is abusing, or otherwise acting in bad faith in relation to any bonus or promotional offering, we reserve the right to terminate a player's account and/or withhold funds in a player's account pursuant to our Terms of Service, subject to applicable laws and regulations.

10. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to withhold the amount of any bonus from a player's withdrawal in accordance with our Terms of Service.

11. Unless otherwise stated in a bonus' Specific Terms, players must fulfil the bonus's wagering requirements within sixty (60) days of a bonus being credited to their account (the "Expiry Date"). If such wagering requirements are not satisfied before the Expiry Date, bonus funds and any winnings generated from the wagering of such bonus funds will be removed from a player's account.

12. We reserve the right, at our sole discretion and at a time of our choosing to revoke bonuses or any parts thereof.

13. Any winnings generated from wagers placed, whether in whole or in part, with bonus money, shall be paid to the winning player as follows:

(i) a payment to the player's real-money bankroll up to the nominal portion of the wager, if any, that was funded with real money;

(ii) a payment of remaining winnings, if any, to the player's real-money bankroll

14. If the funds initially deposited by a player in order to generate or claim a bonus are withdrawn prior to wagering requirements having been satisfied, the bonus amount (and any winnings which may have been generated through the wagering of the bonus funds) will be forfeited.

15. If a player buys entry into a poker tournament using bonus funds, and such funds expire before the tournament is played, the player will not be unregistered from the tournament, but rather, may in CIE's discretion, have the amount of the tournament buy-in deducted from his real money account.

16. A player may have multiple bonuses in his account. Wagers will contribute to satisfying the wagering requirements of only one bonus at a time. Wagers will contribute first toward satisfying the wagering requirements of bonuses awarded to a player earlier-in-time. Only upon satisfaction of the wagering requirements applicable to such bonus (or the expiration or cancellation of the bonus) will wagers then contribute toward satisfying the requirements of the bonus awarded next-in-time.

17. In the event we believe that a player is abusing or attempting to abuse a bonus offered by us, we may, in our sole discretion, deny, withhold or withdraw from such player's account any bonus amount together with any winnings derived from wagers made, in whole or in part.

18. If you wish to withdraw bonus funds or winnings from such funds, please see our Withdrawal Policy.

19. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to restrict eligibility for any bonus offer to a limited category or subset of players.

20. Players may request that any bonus for which the associated wagering requirements have not been satisfied be removed from their account by contacting Support atsupport@wsop.com.

Tournament Tickets

The following terms and conditions for Tournament Tickets will apply to all eligible players (except those solely using the mobile application):
