If you place a bet for $100, your full "available to withdraw" funds will be used and any profit plus the wager will go into that bucket. If instead you place a bet for $200, your "available to withdraw" and locked funds buckets will be used in full and profits/wager will go into those two buckets (evenly split, of course since your wager used the same amount from each bucket).
If you decide to wager all $300 of your account balance and your bet wins, this will cause 1/3 of the profit/wager to go into the bonus funds bucket (the $100 drawn from this bucket for the wager plus the profit from this portion of the wager). If you then decide to forfeit your bonus, you will lose the initial $100 that was in the bonus bucket, as well as the profit that went into that bucket. You would keep all locked and "available to withdraw" funds.
Hope this makes sense and helps.
