The optimal starting tactic is a moderate bet not exceeding 1-2 % of your bankroll.
Worked example: If your bankroll is $100, a single bet should be $1-$2. At a 2.00x cashout your gross return is $2-$4, while a crash before cashout costs you only $1-$2, roughly 1-2 % of the starting balance. This sizing lets you absorb 20+ consecutive losses before depleting half your bankroll.
Early cash out (in the 1.2x-1.5x range) helps you become accustomed to the game's dynamics, though it does not guarantee long-term profit. Becoming familiar with the pace requires concentration on the process, not on potential large payouts. Reducing emotional decisions is achieved by setting the auto-cashout function, which removes the greed factor. Or at least, it tries to.
