live dealer bonus blocked me from switching tables after the first shoe ended

so i was running a live dealer promo, you know the usual bet-min requirement with a table restriction, and as soon as the first shoe ended i tried hopping to a table i actually like. no dice, got an error saying promo funds are locked to the original table. feels like a trap since they don’t mention that in the t&cs or at least i didn’t spot it. i’m not new to bonus gotchas but this one’s sneaky - usually i can switch after the first shoe no issue, especially if the dealer changes out.

anybody else get caught out by this? feels like a real one-way ticket to boredom if you get stuck at a dead table during peak promo hours.
