I got some hints

1. Never by the dynimite or the clover.they are too expecive and don't even work.

2. Always buy the Power Juice.

3. Only buy the dimond juice if it is cheap. YOu never know what levels will have dimonds.

Hi, all. The secret is practice/practice. If you are a good shot- you will advance. Don't buy much at all @ the store, just clovers & diamond polish when they are cheaper. (under $100 for clover)
There is a pattern in the sequence of levels.... for example on the levels that always have four diamonds in the same positions- the next level never-ever has any diamonds. But, do of course stock up on dynamite when the price is right. Also, I found that some lrg. gold pcs. and diamonds were just simply inaccessable. Don't waste time on them. (but there are only a few scenarios of this) Hope I managed to help you a little. If you've any tips on Valentiner that would help me. For I cannot get too far on that one.  Happy Gaming!! -Linda

Dynamite is actually usually cheap and can be very beneficial, especially in a pinch.

1. There is a specific sequence of the appearance of each level (almost repetitive). If u memorise them and pre-empt the type of level (lots of diamond or lots of big rocks) appearing next, u then can buy the stuff that is beneficial to u at that level.

2. If u can achieve No1...when buying stuff, weigh the price of the diamond polish against the number of diamonds u are confident of grabbing. For eg, if a diamond polish is $700, then u must grab at least 3 diamonds to make the purchase worthwhile. (value add of diamond is $300 per piece). When u buy diamond at the right place, u can easily get 5,000 points or more and that covers ur deficit in some rounds where the gold is pathetically little.

3. Buy dynamite only when it is below $100. Dont waste money unless it is absolute necessary. U r likely to get dynamites out of the grab bags too.

4. I tend to go for the grab bags first cos sometimes they have super strength which is very very useful. But that depends if u r on the brink of elimination or not.

5. Big gold ($500) at the bottom takes 12-15 seconds to reach, so plan ur time properly. If u have less than enough time, go for nearby smallers rocks. Better to grab small money than no money. (even if it is a useless rock)

6. Dun buy the rock collector book. Useless.

7. Last but not least, good aiming is the key word. So the more u play, the better u will get. Be patient and strike at the right time.

Give me good karma, if u find this post useful!!!!

Power juice is always worth the price, no matter what.

The rock book is almost useless. Don't but it unless it is under $20 and you can get power juice too.

Only buy the clover and dynamite if they are under $50. Use the dynamite wisely.

Once you learn what order the levels come in, then you can get the gem polish when you know you are coming to a level with a ton of gems. Don't spend more that $300 bucks unless you are super-confident.

Never buy anything unless it's 100.  If you don't have strength leave big gold until the last 25 seconds.  Use dynomite on rocks.

Best tips on playing:
Always go for grab bags 1st as these often contain strength and dynomite.

Get the gophers out of the way if they're very close.

Dont waste a swing just grab at anything if u miss ur goal.

Dynamite:
Buy early on and keep handy

Strength:
Always good on any level

Lucky Clover:
Dont waste your money on this

Rocks:
Can be good small = $33 (norm $11)
large = $60 (norm $20)

Diamond Polish:
Great but be careful not to buy it
at high prices
Diamonds worth $900 (norm $600) +$2
for gophers carrying diamonds.

Buy anything thats $100 this is a great price.

...I also find that if/when the gophers
appear quite early in the game, it tends
to end up not being a very good (or long-
lasting) game. Best to start a new one.
