With the plasma deck you don’t need to balance the chips with multiplier, as it does that for you. So what you want to do is to go all in one either chips or multiplier. Usually it’s easier to get chips bonuses early, and then, when you have the opportunity, to pivot into massive multiplier multiples. Or just keep going with chips, if you have enough levels on your main hand - that might be enough to get you through ante 8 on lower stakes
