Pirate Gold Deluxe is a Pragmatic Play 5 x 4 payline slot where eight treasure bags start a Hold and Win round with locked cash values, multiplier bags, and resetting respins.
Locked money bags reset the three-respin counter, but empty positions must keep filling before the feature reaches its full-grid award.

Treasure Bags Reset Respins
Regular base-game combinations are evaluated across forty fixed paylines on the 5 x 4 grid. Treasure bags act as money symbols with displayed values, while wilds and standard symbols produce ordinary line wins under the main paytable.
Landing at least eight treasure bags starts the Hold and Win feature with three respins. Triggering bags remain locked, and every new bag that occupies an empty position resets the respin counter back to three.
New bags can carry cash values, retrigger effects, or multipliers that affect the collected feature total. The round ends when no respins remain or all twenty positions fill, with a full grid awarding the 1,000x Grand Jackpot.
Locked Bag Effects
- Eight bags: The feature requires substantial money-symbol coverage to start.
- Locked bags: Triggered values remain visible throughout every feature respin.
- Reset count: Each new bag restores the counter to three.
- Bag values: Cash amounts build the collected total position by position.
- Multipliers: Special bags can increase qualifying collected feature values.
- Full grid: Twenty occupied cells award the 1,000x Grand Jackpot.
Collected Values and Multipliers
Most payout value is concentrated inside the Hold and Win round, where locked bags preserve earlier amounts and new symbols extend the sequence. Base-game line wins remain separate and do not carry values into the respin grid.
A multiplier bag can increase collected value, but its displayed number does not pay independently without an applicable amount under the feature rules. Likewise, a nearly full board receives no Grand Jackpot unless all twenty positions are occupied.
The x15,000 maximum exceeds the fixed 1,000x full-grid jackpot, so the ceiling can involve accumulated bag values and multipliers beyond that single award. The exact total still depends on the symbols collected before the respin counter expires.
Player fit and limitations
- Hold and Win: Suits players who track locked values across respins.
- Visible values: Suits players who prefer an accumulating feature total.
- Eight-symbol gate: The bonus needs at least eight treasure bags.
- Three-respin cap: Progress stops when three unsuccessful respins occur.
A nearly filled respin grid can encourage larger follow-up stakes.
Keep the base stake unchanged until the session ends.
