Well. It all depends on how many nudges and how much you are getting from the /house rake. If you aren't making much from either, than you might lose some TC. But once the bets start getting big and you start getting more nudges, you usually make up for the lost TC from betting. I know the other day I had a server that I was -50k in bets, but still made about 90k TC from the server.
You just have to stick with the server and not abandon it when you are not making profits.

I do it all the time. It depends on how confident you are in beating the other person. It isnt always smart. As a host, I would think watching and staying back, betting would be smarter. If you know you can win, I would self bet.

Yes i do. My strategy is, Bet high ONLY when i KNOW i can win. I DO NOT always do that, and i end up losing a bet when i dont. If its me vs some person ive never seen before, and low belt (but not alt), i bet 20k. People arent to confident in the other guy, but they will bet atleast 100-2k each for the small chance of winning 20k. If the bets on him are under 2k total, most host cancel the bets.
and shush, i always win. pshh

Usually 60k untill i start betting on myself when i face a aikidoloverduelguythatplays24/7andreks.
I find donating to be extremely dumb. It works for some, but i do not want to risk losing the tc i donated and having to get tc AND pay them back. I usually do not go under 5k for that reason.
