While i do envy people with higher vip levels i am not going to chase them. As i am playing with low volume anyway chasing big jackpots and occasionally betting sports for high multiplier combination bets. That's not an effective way to level up from what i gather. For me to change tactics, level up perks should be something else completely. Like free raffles for life etc.
Also i don't have enough money so it would be worth it in terms of profit. It's all about just gambling for fun for me.
if indeed you have stated that gambling for you is just for fun, maybe it is true that you don't need to pursue your VIP level, it will only make you tormented. I mean, you gamble just for fun and entertain yourself and everything changes when you have thoughts of increasing your VIP level, whereas you prefer to use a smaller budget to bet. so your mind to raise the VIP level will be a big ambition and end badly.
IMO, you don't need to chase the VIP level and use bigger money to chase it. but you just need to be consistent and committed to your gambling. if you often bet on one of the gambling games and of course over time your account will level up.
so you don't need to focus too much on the VIP account level but have fun responsibly at your favorite casino.
