Auto cash-out is the most useful control in a crash game, and it is widely misunderstood. It does not find better moments to leave. It cannot: the return is the same at every target. What it does is take a decision away from you while the multiplier is climbing, which is when decisions are at their worst. This piece compares four targets so you can choose one knowingly.
The assumption behind the numbers
Everything below uses the standard crash design with a 99% return, the figure Drem lists for its Originals collection, which includes Aviator. In that design the chance of reaching a target is 0.99 divided by the target. The info panel of the game you open is the authority on its real return, and its controls show whether auto cash-out is offered. The results come from that formula and from simulating 200,000 sessions of 100 rounds each.
Four targets over 100 rounds
| Target | Rounds won, on average | Typical longest losing run | Usual range of results | Sessions ending ahead |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1.5x | 66 | 4 | −10 to +8 units | 46% |
| 2x | 49 or 50 | 6 | −14 to +12 units | 42% |
| 5x | 20 | 15 | −25 to +25 units | 42% |
| 10x | 10 | 25 | −40 to +40 units | 41% |
A unit is one stake. “Usual range” covers the middle 80% of sessions: one in ten ends below it and one in ten above. “Typical” is the middle value, so half of all sessions contain a longer losing run than the one shown.
Two things stand out. First, the last column: whichever target you pick, fewer than half of sessions finish ahead, and the average result is the same, one unit lost per hundred staked. Second, the swings: at 10x the range is more than four times as wide as at 1.5x.
What each target feels like
- 1.5x: you win two rounds in three and the balance drifts gently. The danger is boredom, which tempts people to raise the stake.
- 2x: a coin toss that is slightly against you. Runs of six losses are normal.
- 5x: four rounds in five lose. An ordinary session includes fifteen rounds without a win, and then one hit pays for four misses.
- 10x: nine rounds in ten lose. Twenty-five losses in a row is typical and one session in ten sees forty. Most of the session is waiting.
Size the stake to the target
The same stake is not equally safe at every target. Take a session budget of 25 units, for example ₹250 at ₹10 a round. How often is that whole budget lost at some point during 100 rounds?
| Target | Sessions in which 25 units are lost |
|---|---|
| 1.5x | About 1 in 1,000 |
| 2x | About 1 in 65 |
| 5x | About 1 in 5 |
| 10x | About 2 in 5 |
So a higher target needs a smaller stake. A workable rule: divide the session budget by at least three times the typical losing run. At 2x that is 250 ÷ 18, about ₹14 a round at most. At 10x it is 250 ÷ 75, about ₹3. If that stake feels too small to be worth playing, the honest conclusion is that the target is too high for the budget, not that the stake should go up.
Two bets in one round
Versions that accept two bets invite a popular plan: cash one out low to “cover” the round and let the other run. Nothing is covered. They are two separate bets, each returning 99% on average, and together they return 99% of the combined stake. The plan blends a calm bet with a wild one, which is a reasonable shape to want, as long as both stakes are counted against the budget.
Changing the target mid-session
Raising the target after a run of losses, or lowering it after a win, changes nothing about the next round, because rounds are independent. What it does change is your exposure. People raise targets when they are behind, which widens the swings exactly when the budget is thinnest. Pick the target before the session and leave it alone.
The history strip
The row of recent results is where targets get changed for bad reasons. Three low rounds do not make a high one more likely, and a 50x a minute ago does not make another less likely. If you catch yourself adjusting the target to what you have just seen, that is the moment to trust the automatic setting or to end the session.
Why automatic beats manual
- A hand on the button hesitates. Two extra seconds at 1.9x are enough for the round to end.
- A manual target drifts upward after a near miss and downward after a loss.
- An automatic one is the same in round 90 as in round 1, which is the whole point of having a plan.
Choosing
- Decide the session budget first. The bankroll page shows how.
- Choose the experience: steady and small (1.5x to 2x), or long waits with rare hits (5x and above).
- Set the stake from the table above, not from habit.
- Set a loss stop and a timer. When either is reached, the session is over.
None of these choices earns money. They decide how the cost of play arrives: as a slow drift or in sharp jumps. The mechanics of a round are on the Aviator page, and if a session ever stops being fun, the responsible gaming page is the one to read.
