Request to join this FB group - there's a pinned post at the top that has a general strategy guide, and there's probably a good 60k worth of chips you can gather from their 500+ chip share link, if you haven't got them already:

I followed their strategy guide up until around level 50 or so, at which point I got annoyed with the chip loss from the slots, and started playing blackjack instead (except for when building hotels - those I did on the slots at lowest possible bets until the hotels were finished). Collected about 100k chips, and then basically played basic strategy blackjack, flat betting 1% of my starting stack, and then re-adjusting every 100k or so (so at 100k I bet 1000, 200k was 2000, etc. up to 10k at 1 million). I'm now sitting at well over 1.5 million chips, which will be enough of a bankroll to keep me going for a while.
Because I had a relatively short time to play (~6 weeks), I focused on levelling up quickly since I could get 1000 LP every time I levelled. Blackjack is the best way to do that, because the house edge is so much lower than it is with slots. You don't have to know how to play blackjack to do it (I'd never played before) - just find a 6 deck basic strategy chart, and follow that.
I did buy one of the $5 chip packages, since if you buy $5 of chips you get to use an extra reward within a 30 day period. If you just play for free, you only get to use 3 rewards within any 30 day period, but I figured spending $5 for an extra $100+ reward was worth it. But that's all explained in the FAQs in that FB group I linked above.
