I'm stuck at Platinum 3, I'm not forcing myself to play to rank up because I stay with my betting style and limit.
Smart.
It's amazing how often you see players making low variance dice bets because they want to get to the next vip level so bad.
Plat 3 => Plat 4 is 1.5 million wagered and the base bonus is $1600. Imagine wagering 1.02x dice for the last 20% - you will 100% lose somewhere around $3k without any chance at all of winning all in order to get that $1600 bonus.
That's the way the VIP levels are build on all casinos. As a player you will always want to play more just to achieve the next level. Even as a small gambler, Ihave the same, when I am close to a new level, I will always want to play more or even play a little bit more riskier just to achieve the new level.
