The 1-3-2-6 strategy for crash games is simple: bet 1, 3, 2 then 6 units after consecutive wins, and drop back to 1 unit after any loss or a finished ladder. You keep the same auto cash out, usually 2x, and only change how much you stake. Your biggest bets only come after wins, so a hot streak pays well while a loss costs just one rung. Examples use a ₱50 unit. Part of our crash game strategy guide.

How 1-3-2-6 works

Rule: bet 1, 3, 2 then 6 units after consecutive wins, and drop back to 1 unit after any loss or a finished ladder. A quick run with a 2x target:

₱50 wins → ₱150 wins → ₱100 wins → ₱300 wins → back to ₱50

Your win chance stays 48.5% at 2x every round; the system only changes your stake sizes. Compare it with the classic progressions in the D’Alembert and Fibonacci guide.

Simulator results

1-3-2-6 at a 2x auto cash out, ₱2,500 budget (₱50 unit), 100 rounds, 1,000 sessions:

System Typical end Middle 80% Ran out
1-3-2-6 ₱2,150 ₱700–₱3,850 3.3%
Flat bets ₱2,400 ₱1,800–₱3,000 0%
Martingale ₱2,300 ₱0–₱5,100 46.5%

1-3-2-6 changes the shape of your sessions: a steady ride close to flat betting. Run your own version in the crash strategy simulator.

1-3-2-6 vs Martingale and Anti-Martingale

The Martingale strategy doubles after every loss, so one win recovers everything but a long cold run gets expensive fast. The Anti-Martingale strategy presses after wins instead. 1-3-2-6 sits on the calmer side: stakes never chase losses. Still deciding? Our best betting system for crash games guide ranks them all.

Playing betting systems in the Philippines

Filipino players can run this plan at any casino that offers the game, because the maths is identical everywhere. Keep stakes in round pesos such as ₱20, ₱50 or ₱100 so tracking is easy, play on a stable connection, and let auto cash out take your target without a tap. See our Aviator Philippines guide and the best crash games in the Philippines.

Best games for 1-3-2-6

Any crash game with auto cash out works. The Aviator game and the JetX game are favourites in the Philippines; at our partner casinos you can also try Stake’s own crash original.

Pro tip: write your stake sequence down before the session. 1-3-2-6 works best when you never improvise mid-run.
