First, look at the cards in your hand, and no matter what they are, don't go out, bet, bet, bet, but only in denominations of $ 0.15 

Second, skip the first round always, waiting for everyone else to go high, even though you may have 15 points in your hand; you never know!

Third, continue to stay in, no matter what, and after the third round, don't get locked, but start taking more cards to prolong the game and to raise your blood pressure.

Fourth, consolidate your wishful thinking into one lump, observe who's betting, and continue to contribute to the pot, of which you have no chance of winning.

And when you get to 26 1/2, take another card, because you're already out of your mind with paranoia.

And when it comes to declare, go both ways, you deserve it, and you probably wouldn't know the difference anyway!

7 or 27, inside beats outside, most for low, least for high; for everything else there's Mastercard.
