Just my opinion, but I don’t see why you have to keep upping your stakes and getting out of control. I think you’ve kind of lost the value of money due to winning so much recently. I appreciate you’re 70 odd k up, but why don’t you just stay at say £4 stakes, and even if a top won’t cover your losses, it’d certainly eat into them and then you can quit down for the sesh but not down too much. I’d prefer to be down a few grand on a bad session and just end on a top even if it doesn’t cover losses, than potentially down 40k+. Yes you’ve got away with it a few times now but you and I both know this won’t last forever, it can’t do. So basically you’ve resigned to losing 40k at some point, and that’s if you actually stop then, which I think knowing how you play will be extremely hard to do. I am not having a go I’m just trying to warn you before it’s too late. Yes you’ll still be up loads if you manage to walk away with a 40k loss, but in the future you might look back and think it was pretty wreckless and you could use the money, even if you did win it all first. And I have a feeling it’d be very difficult to walk away from this game unscathed after all you’ve been through with it. Huge wins like this can cause something called cognitive dissonance which will directly affect how you look at money and risk in future situations. Anyway, well done on yet another massive recovery. I bet it was a huge relief. Just be careful out there.
The simple answer to that is i have a very specific method on this game – if i hadn’t have played the way i have, i wouldn’t be in the position i a on it now and there wouldn’t be a thread.
My method is very straightforward, it begins on whatever stake i fancy starting on that day but usually, it is £8. I know at £8 that i don’t have to switch up stake until i make over £4,000 worth of deposits because the minimum top on £8 is usually around the £4,096 mark. Should i deposit to be £5,000 in, i then need to change stake to account for this, i could change to £10 where the minimum top is usually £5,120 but i skip that stake to give me a profit possibility for the next couple of deposits as up on £16 the minimum top is usually in the region of £8,192. Of course on any of these stakes, bigger tops are available and do sometimes land and well that is just a bonus.
If it changes your thinking at all about the 40k loss point that i have, this is based not really just on the run you see in this thread but on my profit from the game over the last 7/8 months which is in the region of £400k, yes honestly, I’ve simply only achieved that by playing the exact same time every time – the idea of the thread at the start was to try and give an insight as to why i was doing what i was doing and how it was going, i think i’ve probably achieved that.
You see an escape on last nights session, i see something i have seen lots of times – it’s nowhere near the first time it has happened this way. The loss will come, i know it will but no one needs to worry about me giving all my profit back on this game, it is impossible because i can’t deposit this house i am sitting in in to a casino, i bought this house out of the winnings from both Reel King and Wild Swarm – genuinely. I know and appreciate it sounds bonkers that i managed to do that but this thread surely goes some way to illustrating how i managed it?
I know you aren’t having a go and i am not having a go back but you don’t really need to understand why i need to raise the stakes, just know that that is the way i play it and the way i always will play it. Even when i have had this loss that is looming, i will come back to it and start again low down – I actually did it in this thread at a point, i topped it 6 or 7 times on stakes of £2 and below for a few thousand profit, that is how i usually begin, then i will take that few thousand to £8 and if it goes up, i am off and running again, just my way on the game.
