(1)A reference in section 156 or 157 to providing a prize to a person includes a reference to crediting money to an account if the person is notified that—
(a)the money is being held in the account, and
(b)the person is entitled to withdraw it on demand.
(2)Where the account of a person participating in gaming is credited otherwise than as described in subsection (1), the credit is to be treated for the purposes of sections 156 and 157 as the provision of a prize; but the Commissioners may direct that this subsection is not to apply in a specified case or class of cases.
