  • You will have raise some money before betting. You know, that’s the basic rule, having enough money to wager. Spend it to buy at least 3,600 Kifuda wooden tags, which will set you back around 36 Ryo.
  • Save your game in case your bets don’t go the way you planned. This will be your backup if you end up with no money. I wish this was a thing in real life. No, I don’t bet, but I sure as anti-heaven would if one could start over. Anyway, back to the guide.
  • Start betting using the Dividend List. Place 300 Kifuda tags on each option.
  • If you have a profit, then save and go ahead and repeat your bet. If you lose, then load up your previously save file. Repeat this until you are satisfied.
