The Latin Bingo example is probably the most illuminating here—the offer for the player to buy extra balls is made for one extra ball at a time and the amount charged to buy the ball is calculated based on the pattern of spots the player already has daubed. So that the expected payout of the extra bet is equal to the amount charged to make the wager

Because the extra bet offered is at 100%, it doesn’t matter at all if the player takes it from an RTP point of view. But it feels to the player like it is a skill-based decision. – Expert mathmatician commentary

  • Consider only adding this mechanic on a few spins so as not to slow down spin per minute. Control the frequency of this feature triggering by the potential win amount of the respin purchase (increasing the potential win limit decreases the frequency the respin bet mechanic fires)
  • Only make an offer if there is a chance that respinning could create a winning pattern
  • Players feel like this mechanic is a skill-based decision, even though it is a 100% payout bet
