Losing money and the value of charms

[Big_E_2]

I tracked every coin this month.

May 31st finished with: $4,985,468,437,532
April 30th finished with: $4,803,180,157,717
Total coins earned: $182,288,279,815
Average coins / day: $5,696,508,744

In my monthly wrap-up it says:

Coins won: $111,851,869,880
Bonus coins from charms: $133,200,257,122
Building income collected: $31,226,568,099

Which means my total income was $276,278,695,101

Which also means my total LOSS from gambling was -$93,990,415,286

So new players take note: If you’re losing money gambling, you’re over-betting your charms! I earn over $5 Billion a day, almost exclusively through the strength of my charms!

It may also mean I need to play games that pay out better…

i’m way behind you in terms of coins and i know you know this game better than me, but i always pay attention in what games i play and what charms i use in order to at least not lose. I mean, i want to move forward, but if that means betting a lot more than i can handle, i prefer to move slowly. I am at milestone 54 going to 55, and i have 32,259,582,765 coins. My montly wrap-up says this:

@Polina4 you’re playing correctly. But there are a lot of people who accuse the game of cheating because they lose billions of dollars, when in reality they are betting too much for the charms they have.

The game is mostly realistic in wins / losses. You may win in a casino sometimes, but in the long run you will likely lose to the house advantage.

The bonus of having charms in CW is what keeps your balance going up, and you coming back to play.

I agree with you and you do the right thing by showing people how to be more careful playing. I also feel that most of the people here are viewing this game as “real casino” and they shouldn’t. We don’t win anything here, except the pleasure of playing a game.

Just looked at mine…and what it tells me is that I need to only play Sparkplug Poker or Mahjong each and everyday!!!

Fire Lotus Pachinko works well with Nectars and Big TB Charms if you want to take a break from slots.

You can play Casino World and actually win more than you lose (excluding charms). You just have to be discerning in the games played and strategies used. Here is what I play, other than challenges.

Blackjack, when played correctly, the player has an advantage of somewhere between 3% and 4%. See my post on “Why I Like Blackjack”. This is my favorite game as I can play 250M coins in 40 seconds.

Dragon Mahjong: I have never lost a game as I collect the powerup tokens daily and can swap when I’m stuck. I always play at max 10M.

Jewels of Osiris: I have a post on this too (How to Win at Jewels of Osiris). If you only play the square boards or just the fives, you can’t lose.

Games against other players: this would include Poker, Liar’s Dice and maybe Fringo, assuming you get the daily powerups. Although all these games have a house edge or a pot rake, if you are play more skillfully than the other players, you will win. I did not include the regular Bingo games which are pure luck.

All other games are mostly luck and the house advantage cannot be overcome. In a challenge involving these games, I play the minimum needed to finish.

YES! I think @Big_E_2 means Losing Money and the Value of “Charms”?

I see Players say “Win BIG”, I say “Lose Small”! Granted I “Win Small” too as you can see from my Report. But if you use Charms properly you can “WIN BIG” at the same time! LOL

We ALL have our ways to have FUN!!! here. This is just one of mine.

[Big_E_2]

CHARMS! Yes…edited my title. Too little sleep, too little coffee…

Thank you for all the helpful suggestions!
I will be referring to this post and others again and again!

Where can you find this information of what you made from charms and coins?

[Big_E_2]

@Cathylee You get an email the 1st of the month at the email you used when you registered with CW. Check your junk / spam folder if you don’t see it.

Maybe it should be “NOT Losing Money and The Value of Charms”, LOL! TYVM, this is a Super Imporant Topic, especially for newcomers. It is a Great Bookmark!
