Football Hold & Blitz

Hold and Respin, or 'Hold & Win', is one of the most popular core bonus game mechanics in modern slots. The essence of this feature, unlike traditional free spins, is to 'Hold' bonus symbols on the reels and 'Respin' the remaining empty spaces to fill up the screen. This system was popularized worldwide through 'Money Train 2's' 'Money Cart Bonus' and is the foundation for numerous developer-specific brand features like Wazdan's 'Hold the Jackpot™' and Playtech's 'Fire Blaze™'.

Ante Bet is a special betting mode where the player pays a small additional cost on top of their base bet to artificially increase the probability of entering the game's core bonus feature (usually free spins). It is a kind of 'strategic booster' offered to players who want to enjoy the highlight moments with a higher probability than a regular spin, but at a lower cost than directly buying the bonus game.
