## Summary

The video demonstrates a bankroll-building strategy for slot players with small budgets, using a $500 starting bankroll. The creator plays a variety of low and high volatility slots, emphasizing the importance of setting walk-away limits, taking small wins, and managing bankroll to leave the casino with a profit.

### Key Points

- **Starting Bankroll and Goal** [00:04] — The creator starts with $500 and aims to build it into a larger amount, showing a realistic approach for players with limited budgets.
- **Choosing the Right Slot** [00:39] — Not all slots are equal; some are high volatility, others low. The creator believes bankroll building can work on either, but the approach differs.
- **Low Volatility Slot: Pinball** [01:07] — Plays Pinball at $2 a spin (two credits), recommending max credits to get full bonus benefits. The pay table is half of normal, but bonuses average around 80 credits.
- **Setting Walk-Away Limits** [03:08] — Important to decide when to stop. Expected returns for most games are 50-180 credits; if you hit that, consider walking away.
- **Taking Wins as Percentages** [05:06] — When up, set limits. A $60 win is a 60% return, so view wins in percentage terms. The creator plays down to 150 or up to 200, then cashes out.
- **Pink Diamond: Consistent Kickbacks** [07:23] — Pink Diamond has 5 lines, giving consistent kickbacks. Average line hits return about your bet. The creator leaves at 146, avoiding risking $46 to win $4.
- **Higher Volatility: Wolf Run Gold** [09:35] — Plays Wolf Run Gold, a classic IGT game without progressives, making it less volatile. The bonus can be incredible, and the creator prefers it over the original.
- **Conserving Bankroll** [11:01] — With a small budget, slow down the reels to extend gameplay. The creator sets a walk-away limit at 50 if starting with $100.
- **Small Wins Add Up** [16:27] — After leaving Pinball with 220, Pink Diamond with 146, and Wolf Run with 229, the loose money totals $95, which is 20% of the $500 bankroll. Taking wins is crucial.
- **New Game: Stinking Link** [17:07] — Plays Stinking Link, a new game with metamorphic progressions. The creator notes that minimum bets are higher due to inflation, but odds don't change with bet multiplier.
- **Stopping at Even** [22:16] — After being above the starting point, the creator stops at 100, explaining that not chasing losses is key to bankroll building.
- **Jewel of the Dragon** [23:26] — Plays Jewel of the Dragon, a favorite with reasonable bet amounts. Line hits aren't great, but bonuses are key. The creator leaves even after a close call with the walk-away limit.
- **End of Bankroll Building Session** [29:46] — After several games, the creator is up about $300, a 60% win. Recommends taking a break to make non-emotional decisions.
- **Risking Profit on Top Dollar** [31:58] — After a meal, the creator decides to risk profit on Top Dollar in the high limits room, putting $300 in at $5 denomination. Advises low-limit players to take the win instead.
- **Top Dollar Win and Cash Out** [33:30] — Gets a first offer of 80 credits ($400), which is a take offer. Cashes out at 700, avoiding the risk of losing $80 to win $20.
- **Playing Tarzan with Profit and Free Play** [35:06] — Uses profit and free play to play Tarzan, a favorite game. Starts at 10-cent denomination, then increases bets.
- **Tarzan Bonus Win** [41:38] — Hits a bonus with diamonds, winning over $200 on a $5 bet. The free games can be incredible with stacked wilds and re-triggers.
- **Playing Down to 850** [47:22] — After a big win, the creator decides to play down to 850, showing discipline in setting limits even when winning.
- **Final Result: Over $1,000 Profit** [49:07] — The session ends with the bankroll built from $500 to well over $1,000 in profit. The creator emphasizes taking wins, setting limits, and taking breaks.

### Conclusion

The key to successful bankroll building is discipline: set walk-away limits, take small wins, and take breaks to avoid emotional decisions. By doing so, even small bankrolls can yield significant profits over time.

## Transcript

We took $500 and flipped it into nearly $1,700. And I'm going to show you exactly how I did it. So, let's [music] get at it.
Who doesn't love watching Mr. hand pay or jackpot jetto do $100 spins and land some massive [music] hand pays. But for most of us, we come to the casino with 100, 200, $300, $500 budgets. So, it's not really realistic
for us. But that doesn't mean we can't leave the casino a winner. Today, I'm going to show you the basics of bankroll building and hopefully how to land you a
jackpot. First things first, what should we play? Well, not all slots are created equally. Some are high in volatility, others low in volatility. Now, I am a firm believer that you can bankroll builds on either. It's just how you go
builds on either. It's just how you go about doing it. So, let's start off on a low to middle involatility slot, pinball. All right, starting this off with pinball.
So, we're going to do $1 denomination. It's $2 a spin since this is a two credit pinball. That's the only pinball I recommend.
this game, you really want to play max credits. If you do get into the pinball bonus and you don't play max credits, you're not going to get the full benefit of the game.
And the way the pay table on this oh works is that you're actually only getting paid for as if you're playing one credit because of that bonus. So you need to max bet.
Also, Pinball's like a medium in volatility, medium to low in volatility game. It was actually designed for high limit players, but I love it as a bank world building
but I love it as a bank world building game. The bonuses can be incredible. The average bonus is around 80 something credits, credits, give or take.
going to be a little less frequent because it has to make up for those because it has to make up for those bonus rounds. roll building is knowing when Hey, there we go. So, had that been a normal double
diamond, we would have gotten 40 credits. But again, the pay table is half on pinball. Same thing in top dollar. you're bankroll building, a very important thing to think about is when
are you going to stop playing? And that's where expected return for a game comes in. So on most games about 50 to 180 credits
is going to be that big in the middle of the road hit. So if you get that, you really need to start thinking about maybe I should walk away. That being said, you don't want to play too many credits because of what
you can expect to actually get as a decent bonus or line. And look at that. decent bonus or line. And look at that. We're in pinball.
There we go. Let's get something there.
Not too bad. This is the last month [music] in my $3,000 giveaway, and I'm doing something different and special. So, this month I am picking four people and I'm giving [music] each one of you $250
and one person is going to win [music] $500 in free play here at Kashada. Now, videos in [music] March. Check the descriptions for all the details. The
entries you have. Now, the comments do need to be meaningful, so no [music] just thumbs up or heart emojis. This is just my way of giving back to [music] all of you for all the support that you've given me over the last two years.
All right, [music] let's get back to the video. We're up and this is where most people fail. When you're up, you need to set limits. $60 may not seem like a big win, but it is a 60% win and you need to start looking at wins in the terms of
percentage. So, what I think we're going to do is we're going to play this down to do is we're going to play this down to 150 or up to 200 and then cash out. So, not a bad bonus. It was kind of right there where I said about 80
credits for pinball. So, like I said, play this down to 150, set our walk away play this down to 150, set our walk away limit, and take the win.
Are you kidding me? Yeah. Let's do it again.
pinballs, you guys. So, again, we are up. So, set those limits. Let's do three backup spins and then we're calling it.
Okay, you guys. So, we had a little bit of camera issues there. Uh, I guess I didn't hit the record button. Nothing happened. We played it down to 220 and know exactly what we're going to go play next. And that is [music] Pink Diamond.
diamond. Looks good. five lines tend to give really good consistent kickbacks because you have so
many lines. And Pink Diamond is one of my absolute And Pink Diamond is one of my absolute favorites.
line hits you're going to get about your bet back. Now, this one could be a lot better because of all those double symbols.
Though, she's not treating us too well today. Hey, never mind. I take it back. Look at that. $80 right there. Again, what I was telling you guys, what is going to be your average expected big hit? And just
your average expected big hit? And just like pinball, uh we are up. Uh so, you know what? All right, you guys. We're up to 146. And again, we're up. So, we need to
think about what we're going to do. Now, a lot of people would play this down to 100 or they'd keep playing until they got above 150. If you have a small got above 150. If you have a small bankroll, again, you need to take the
wins. These small wins are not only going to add up at the end, but they're going to help cushion you when you have a loss, cuz you will have a loss, and a loss, cuz you will have a loss, and it's going to keep you fairly even as
long as you don't play your money all the way down. Now we're at 146. I don't the way down. Now we're at 146. I don't see a point in trying to play some more to get to 150, some arbitrary number. Why risk $46 to win $4? That makes
absolutely no sense. So what we're going to do now is we've played two lower in volatility slots and I realize a lot of casinos don't have these. So let's go find something a little bit higher in volatility that might be more common in
most casinos. So, I know not everyone has access to low involatility slot machines. Uh, they are disappearing from a lot of casinos. That's why we're going to play Wolfrun Gold. It is a classic. I absolutely love Wolfrun and I actually
love all of the older IGT games. They are staples in my bankroll building uh arsenal. What's good about these games is they don't have progressives, which inherently makes them less volatile. There's only one bonus in this game. So,
than games like Huffand and Puff or Phoenix Link, and you're going to get them more consistently. And the bonus in this game can be actually incredible, and I actually like it better than the original Wolf Run. So, let's give it a
original Wolf Run. So, let's give it a shot and see what happens. [music] So, anyone who's watched my channel before knows how much I love Wolfrun and
before knows how much I love Wolfrun and [music] second version and I actually like this one better than the original. Uh the
[music] little bit better and it has a haywire. playing with a small budget, we want to conserve our bankroll, manage our
bankroll, and extend our gameplay. So, if a [music] game like this Oh, there you go. Nice. Look at that. All right. Six bucks. [music] If a game has an option to slow down the reels, slow down the reels. Enjoy the
[music] and go through your money, right? You have a small bankroll. You right? You have a small bankroll. You want to play for as long as you can. want to play for as long as you can. [music]
[music] I really dig this game. Let me know if you've played Wolfrun, if you like Wolfrun, have you played
you like Wolfrun, have you played Wolfrun Gold? [music] Ah. So, three of those obviously gets [music] us into the bonus round where the bonus symbols actually become sticky and they'll give you an extra spin.
That's why I like this one better than the original.
Unfortunately, [music] she's not treating us too well.
[music] just flip-flop between 120 180 if I'm only putting $100 in. if I'm only putting $100 in. >> [music]
across. [music] But if we get down to 50, [music] that's where we're going to stop. Now, I get asked all the time, why not
Now, I get asked all the time, why not just put $50 in? The purpose is so that at the end of your sessions, [music] even if you had five losing sessions, even if you had five losing sessions, you'll have $250 or half of your money,
right? And you can assess, do I want to [music] continue playing or All right. [music]
There we go. So, this bonus will stick and it will give us an extra gain.
just like in the normal just [music] like this. Look at that. No premium symbols, but it's still going to be really good. really good. [music]
[music] Nice.
money back. We'll definitely be in profit territory. going to land. All right, got some wolves. Too bad we didn't get five of the kind, but got four more games to land some more
got four more games to land some more wilds and bonus symbols.
>> [music] >> So, we're definitely going to be at our walk away limit. We're up 50. So, this is going to make it. Wow, we're up [music] quite a bit.
one more of [music] those bonus symbols or just a screen of wilds. down. Hey, there we go. Exactly where we
wanted them. Those totems up at top. We got those a Those totems up at top. We got those a couple times.
Huge win. [music] Look at that, y'all. $169. I'm absolutely content with that. We got an amazing bonus. We've doubled our
an amazing bonus. We've doubled our bankroll coming in. Wow, Wolfie, you never let me down.
229. 229. [music] we left Pinball with 220. We left Pink Diamond with 146. And now
we're stepping away with from Wolf Run with $229. Why is this important? Well, all of that loose money has now added up to $95.
When you have a $500 bankroll, that is 20%. [music] That's why it's so important to take the win. Those small wins add up.
All right, y'all. So, we just killed it on Wolf Run Gold. Uh since we're doing so well, I want to try something a little bit different. Uh Stinking Link. This is a brand new game. I just did a couple of videos on it. I really, really
times, so hopefully that trend continues. So, let's give it a shot.
to throw another dollar in there. Sorry about that.
my mic. Okay. [music] >> Uh, low budget slots. >> Oh, pretty good. I thought that was you. >> Yeah. Yeah. I got here. God. >> Hey. Okay. Let's see. Sorry about that, everybody. Ran into one of the lowbudget
everybody. Ran into one of the lowbudget fam. Always [music] love talking to everybody.
>> So, here you go. You can see these metamorphic [music] progressions. Oh, hey, there we go. Richard the skunk throwing down some wilds.
I actually really like what they did with that. >> So that one always kind of just is a random haywire trigger. The other two random haywire trigger. The other two can trigger randomly
or if you get three of the trash [music] for cash, you'll get the trash for cash bonus. And if you get three of the keys to riches from left to right on a payline, [music] you'll get the bonus.
[music] Rich, but Stink Link. Uh, I think I think honestly they did a better think I think honestly they did a better job with this. Uh, hey, more wild just pooping out money.
Nine bucks. I'll take it. Had Dragon Link bonuses that weren't that good. let me know what you think about it down in the comments. I really like this.
features of the original Stinking Rich. Updated the graphics. There's two versions of this. There's the cowboy and then this wine one. [music] They changed the music to fit the theme.
Stinking Rich, line hits aren't the best. Uh but I I I like what they
cuz those wilds do come down relatively often and help bring you back up [music] often and help bring you back up [music] and keep you sustained.
[music] game is this is one of the newer games that's come out that the bet amounts [music] is reflecting more of the inflation. So, at minimum bet at each bet denomination is 100 credits. So at 2
cents it's $2. [music] 5 cents it's $5.
Now I read the game rules. Uh it didn't say anything about your odds changing based on bet multiplier. So I'm comfortable playing it at minimum bet. And I did pretty good at minimum bet the other day.
All right, Richard. [music] We need some magic.
We got some five of a kind, some lizards. 12 bucks. Not bad.
I mean, we're above our starting point, y'all. So, this [music] is a good point. We haven't gotten here before. We're just going to stop at 100.
And I'll explain why we don't get anything. All right. So, we're going to stop there even.
And that is so so important when you're bankroll building with a small small bankroll building with a small small budget. [music] Actually, you know what?
with that. Um, I'm definitely not going to chase. So, let's let me walk around. Let me see what I think might be fun to play. We
bit more risk. All right, I'll be right back.
my favorite games. I heard they were getting rid of it, but I guess they're getting rid of it, but I guess they're not. So, absolutely happy about that.
It's also one of those games that has reasonable bet amounts at even higher reasonable bet amounts at even higher bet denominations.
I will say this, a much like most games these days, uh the line hits aren't all that good. It's all about getting into the bonus.
So, if you get three of those red ones, h it would trigger a bonus.
some action. Where are we getting line hits? Where are we seeing bonus symbols?
to find There we go. where you're getting money There we go. where you're getting money back. [music] you, keep you going so that you can Oh, man.
Hey, look at that, y'all. We're in it. So, this is cool. Every time we land one of these red diamonds, [music] diamonds, [music] we'll get that amount added.
we'll get that amount added. and any line hits. Oh man. [music]
A boo. [music] Come on.
>> [music] >> Come on. We're going to need something here. More than a$150.
Ah, brutal. Brutal. Can't complain though. [music]
As long as we're sustained, that's what's important. Oh. Oh, man.
bankroll builds on any [music] volatility. It's just how you go about doing it. You know, you can have huge wins on these games or it can just burn through your money.
[music] So if you only have access to high volatility slots, you just need to focus on bankroll management, bankroll convers uh bankroll conservation, taking the winds, keeping
conservation, taking the winds, keeping those buffers. We don't get something soon, this might be our first losing session.
we get down to 50. That's going to be our walk away limit. don't spend all of our money. you leave with something.
Just because you put money into a slot machine doesn't mean you have to spend machine doesn't mean you have to spend it all.
Are you kidding me? Last spin magic [music] with some goodiz orbs and a 40 cent line hit. [music]
Oh, there we go. Let's get a progressive.
Oh, don't stop, [music] those are good numbers. Any bonus is a good bonus.
starting [music] point, $96.
but we're basically even. Okay, we are stopping here. Why? Because again, I do not see a point in risking [music] $46 to win $4. We could still lose that stop
at 50. And now we're down $50. I don't see a point in it. We shot our shot, right? We got a couple bonuses. as we got really close to our walk away limit and then it shot us back up. Leaving even after a great fun game is a win.
Consider it a win. So, we're going to stop here. Now, we've had a lot of good sessions today, right? We broke even. We've had great luck on Pinball, Pink
Diamond, Wolf Run Gold, broke even on Stinking Rich, and then lost a little Stinking Rich, and then lost a little bit here on Jewel of the Dragon. We're say about $300. $300 in profit, give or take. That's a great day at the casino,
This is 60% [music] win. $300 is a lot of money to a lot of people. So, if you have a small bankroll, you need to stop here and
think about what you're going to do next. I always recommend taking a break, going getting something to eat, go back to your room, have an event plan, something to get you out of the casino so that you [music] can make a non
emotional choice about what you want to do next. For me, I got the dog back in the room. I'm also starving. I'm a little bit tired and I want to shower. Uh, so I'm going to head back over there and
I'm going to think about what I want to do next. Do I want to risk it? do I want to keep it? And that is a big big thing when it comes to bankroll building. You don't have to give the casino back their money. It is your money now. You do not
have to give it back to them. All right. So, let me go see the pup and I'll be right back. [music] So, we're at Big Sky Kashada's Steakhouse. They just opened. Look at this place. It is so nice and it is so
quiet in here. I am excited to get some food into my I am excited to get some food into my belly. I think. And the oxtail looks really good.
>> So, we decided to go with the oxtail. Looks delicious. having some dessert. Look at that. Oh, this is going to be so good.
high limits room at Kashada. And what I decided to do after filling my belly was to risk our profit. And we're going to to risk our profit. And we're going to put that into one of my favorite games,
Top Dollar. Um, they have a great selection here in the high limits room. So, we're going to put $300 in. I think we're going to do $5 denomination. Now, understand. I'm doing this because I have profit and I've been successful
this trip. Please, y'all, if you're up and you're a low limit player, just take the win. Walk away. I always recommend having something in mind before you come to the casino that you want. So, when you reach a number, let's say you want a
new shoe uh new shoes or you want a purse or you want, you know, a new cell phone or you want a new watch. When you reach that number, stop and buy that for yourself. Don't give the casino back their money. I know they don't like
hearing that, but it's the truth. It's your money now. You don't have to give it back. But if you are going to risk it, if you're going to go for those bigger wins, then use profit. Take your original bankroll, put it away so you're
living with that. So, let's load this up and hopefully Top Dollar treats us right. All right, Top Dollar. $10 a pull
as MJ Sluck guy would say. >> First offer, [music] >> Wa 80 credits, y'all. That is huge. That's $400.
So, anything above 45 credits on that first offer is a take offer. So, we are >> Boy, you're a winner. >> I know I'm a winner. Top dollar.
Okay, you guys, I know you're going to think I'm crazy, [music] but I'm cashing think I'm crazy, [music] but I'm cashing out. So, for me, I would cash out at 700. And a lot of people would play this down to 600. I'm
not going to do that. I don't see the sense in losing $80 to try to win $20. Do you see where I'm going here? And I they'll keep playing it down and then they'll get to their walk away limit and
then keep going. So, we're not going to do that. We had a great session. We got top dollar and we got a big number on top dollar, which doesn't always happen. Now, that doesn't mean I'm done. So, there's a game I've been itching to play
and now we've got some profit and I've got some free play and I want to go give it a shot and that is Tarzan. It is one of my favorite games. Uh, it's really a guilty pleasure of mine. So, we're in profit and I got some free play. So,
let's go do some bigger spins out there on the main floor.
credits when I started filming this part of the video, but I do notice it about halfway through and then I drop it down. So, I apologize for that. All right. Whoa. Whoa.
Dude, what are you doing? What's going on with this thing?
Silly camera. All right, let's looks good. All right, let's see.
we're starting off on 10-centent denomination Tarzan. One of my favorite denomination Tarzan. One of my favorite games. we were on top dollar, but that's because you can win so much
uh on these games that we're not doing too well. bet. Kind of hop around. See if there's any
Kind of hop around. See if there's any action.
it's so fun. >> It's up to, let's see, keeps going. Nice. 548. [snorts] Heck yeah.
and we'll reassess if we get down to 300. Nice Tarzans. Let me hear that music.
>> I don't know why I love the music so much, but I do. you get 10 times more bets, it's going to be a topper.
That's what we need. We need six of those diamonds. pretty rough. Uh, but the bonuses are incredible. The
free games are really, really good. Uh, you get stacked wilds.
>> Tarzan. I don't know why I enjoyed that so much. content creators just like just fast tap through these things. Like when I get a
through these things. Like when I get a nice line hit, I just like to enjoy it. right and kind of calculate what I'm getting. But, you know, this is entertainment for me, so I want to let it count up. If it's too long, I'll
speed it up for y'all. Uh, but when it's just me, I just let it go. 533. Oh, come on, Tarzan.
So, this game has multiple line options. You can do 50, you can do 100. You can actually do some really big bets on this game.
>> Tarzan's got a huge cult following. [music] They have a bunch of Tarzan versions. I was talking to Kashada. They said that they're actually going to be replacing this with something else, which I hate
to hear because I really, really love this game.
All in all, we're surviving. I can't complain, especially at $5 a spin.
course I say that now we're hemorrhaging money.
Hey, look at that y'all. We are in it. And those are some goodiz diamonds.
Oh, we got a mini for 50, y'all. And another one. And another one. Oh, big ball bonus.
I need [music] to grab my phone. Hold on.
>> A. You know what? That is a killer bonus. That is over That is a killer bonus. That is over $200.
on that itty bitty teeny weeny $5 bet. Easy money here at Kashada.
don't know why more people don't like playing it.
All right, $721, y'all. We are doing great. y'all. We are doing great. So, what I think is since we are up probably burned through our free Are you kidding me?
