Incremental rate increase strategy

Incremental rate increase strategy

1. The essence of the strategy

Stepwise rate increase is a method in which the player gradually increases the bet size according to a predetermined scheme. Unlike sharp jumps or chaotic changes in bets, there is a clear plan: the bet grows in steps after certain events (for example, winning, losing or passing a fixed number of spins).

The main goal of the strategy: to maintain a balance between risk and control, as well as adapt the game to change the bankroll.

2. Principles of step construction

Base Bet: The player chooses the minimum bet size at which the cycle begins.
Increment: the rate rises at a fixed interval (for example, every 20 spins) or when a certain condition occurs.
Maximum bet limit: Defined in advance to avoid excessive losses.
Reset to entry level: After reaching the limit or winning, the bet returns to the base.

3. Applications

3. 1. By number of spins

The player raises the bet by 10-20% every 10-20 spins. Suitable for long sessions and testing slots with bonus features.

3. 2. After winnings

The bet is increased if the slot has given a significant win (for example, 5-10x from the bet). Thus, the player "plays to win," preserving the fixed capital.

3. 3. After losses

Some use a stepped strategy in the style of "softened Martingale" - the rate rises smoothly after a series of losses, but the increase step is limited. This reduces the risk of complete bankruptcy.

3. 4. Mixed option

Combination of conditions: the bet rises after a certain number of spins, and after winnings, but always within the limit.

4. Advantages and disadvantages

Pros:
  • flexible bankroll adaptation;
  • the ability to increase winnings in good periods;
  • control of risk due to restrictions;
  • a disciplined approach that excludes chaotic play.

Cons:
  • requires strict adherence to the rules;
  • with high volatility can lead to rapid drawdown;
  • does not guarantee a constant profit - there remains a dependence on chance.

5. Player errors

No limits: the rate grows without restrictions, which quickly leads to losses.
Plan violation: Players step up faster than planned under the influence of emotion.
Catch-up bet: steps turn into an attempt to recoup, not a strategic tool.

6. Result

Staggered rate increases are a compromise strategy between fixed and progressive systems. It helps to maintain control over the process and at the same time use the successful moments of the game. However, the key condition for its effectiveness is discipline and predetermined boundaries.
