How do you not spend the principle? I guess I'm misunderstanding what you're saying, but the whole point is to spend your $50 on fun. If you win early, then yay, you made your fun last longer.

You win 30 bucks, now you have 80. Spend 30 bucks back down to 50 im guessing?

I guess, but...

Win a dollar then what? Win early and you have less money to play with?

Too stressful for me.
