Placing Bets
- Availability of Games: The selection and availability of Games on houseofjack-aussie.com may change at any time and may be limited or blocked in certain locations, including Australia, due to regulatory or commercial reasons.
- Minimum and maximum stakes: Each Game specifies its own minimum and maximum Bet limits. By placing a Bet, you acknowledge and accept the specific rules and paytables applicable to that Game as displayed in the Game client.
- Bet confirmation: A Bet is deemed accepted when it is registered on our servers and appears in your Game history. Once accepted, you cannot usually cancel or amend the Bet.

- Any funds mistakenly credited to your Account must be returned or will be reversed; and
- We may review logs and outcomes to reach a fair resolution consistent with industry practice.
Cancellation and Modification of Bets

- Tools and support: Where technically available, you may set limits and request self-exclusion via Account settings or by contacting support at [email protected]. Availability and scope of such tools may be constrained by the offshore and unregulated nature of the service in Australia.

- Bonuses are available only to registered Players with a verified email address;
- Each individual, household, IP address, device, and payment method may be limited to one participation per promotion;

- Multiple Accounts, collusion, or syndicated play designed to exploit Bonuses.
Combining Promotions
- One active Bonus rule: Unless explicitly allowed, only one active Bonus may be in play on your Account at any given time. Attempting to combine or overlap multiple Bonuses may lead to cancellation of one or more Bonuses.
- Order of play: Where both Real Money Balance and Bonus Funds are present:
- Real Money Balance may be used first, or
- Bonus Funds may be used first, depending on the promotion rules as stated at the time. In all cases, the applicable rules will be set out in the Bonus description, and your continued play constitutes acceptance of such rules.
