Honestly I was a bit reckless early but got away with it. I wasn't really paying attention to how much I bet. Typically I'll use 3 or 4 lineups per period. I'll typically enter each into a 3 dollar moonshot, each into the quarter arcade and then double ups and 50/50s. I accidentally entered a 25 dollar triple up and hit on it, which is why I've made decent profit.
