Well perhaps Big Money just isn't your game! Or you just need to keep on practicing.....................

Same problem with me. But i managed to score once 164k in easy mode and 90k in hard mode. Base line for me is 110-120 k in easy and 30-40k in hard mode.

Still my problem remains in finishing the game. I can not understand what should I do to not screw up in one of the lower levels...

awww but that is why we are all here Jeannie! To live, learn and grow as skillgamers

i think the best way to learn is to have an expert or elite give you tips and strategies and advice after watching a video you made of one of your games

i royally SUCK at big money. but what i have found that helps me learn and master any game is to practice.....but DONT practice the SAME way every time. take chances, do things you think are stupid or would never try. experiment and take risks....this will help you find what works....but most importantly, find out what works for YOU!

The advice to experiment with different strategies is excellent. I think one other thing to try is see if any games similar to big money would satisfy your addiction and maybe yield some money too!

Check out Chain Reaction on king.com. I think it's pretty similar and altho i suck at big money (consistently score 90k on easy.. occassionally have hit 125k if i play really fast and get lucky) I was able to make some money at chain reaction until my skill ranking got over 4000.

My take on chain reaction is it is largely about speed and very very very rarely do you blow up when things hit the top. I enjoy life much more without the risk of blowing up and find it much more profitable to boot....

of course you would experiment playing free games and not cash games. once you are more confident to which strategy best works for you then you can BRING IT in cash games

my main advice is NEVER to practice the same way. but not only that be OBSERVANT while you are practicing. if you are an observant gamer you can better learn and understand the mechanics of the game better. what cause what chains or combos. it helps you understand WHY that move had the effect it did and what you did in order to make or setup that move. etc

see when you are observant while playing, let's say you get a HUGE COMBO! or high scoring move!, if you are observant you will NEVER find yourself saying "OMG!!! WOW! I GOT ALL THESE POINTS AND CLEARED THE BOARD! but i dont know how or why the fock it happened" LOL!

once you do those 2 things, you can pretty much master any game you set your heart on!

Good luck Jeannie! sorry i am not a big money master to better help you out
