You bet side A, then you bet side B, the funds are clear, only what you could lose is restricted from use.
Say you have $1,000 in account, and have $900 on one side, then bet $100 on the other side. You will have a few hundred available to use, at Pinny the $1,000 is all tied up until game ends.
Same with Matchbook. ( funds become clear)

<TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=583 border=0><TBODY><TR><TD vAlign=top width=275>As wagering markets become faster and more competitive, it's important to use your bankroll as efficiently as possible: a missed opportunity can be every bit as expensive as a lost bet.
Matchbook can help. We provide full margin support - at absolutely no cost - for all your trades.
When you make a trade, we only reserve funds from your account equal to the extra risk created by that trade.
For example, let's assume you decided to back Chicago in this year's World Series, wagering your entire account balance of $650 to win $500 (at odds of -130). Your $650 would be held in reserve in your Matchbook account.
After winning the first two games, Chicago is a big favorite at -400 to win the series. So you decide to hedge your position a bit, wagering $150 to win $600 on Houston. At most sportsbooks, you'd now need to deposit extra funds. But not at Matchbook.
</TD><TD width=40></TD><TD vAlign=top width=268>We calculate that if Chicago wins, you'll still be ahead $350, and if Houston wins, you'll only be down $50. So since the worst that can happen to you is a loss of $50, that's all that Matchbook holds in reserve.
This powerful logic applies throughout all Matchbook markets. In futures markets, for example, you can wager against as many contestants as you like without generating additional exposure. And in our Live Betting markets, you can trade back and forth all game long, regardless of the size of your bankroll.
Matchbook Margin. It'll keep you in the game.
