I want this property, how do I get it?

So this property popped up on the MLS the other day and my agent and I went to see it yesterday. I knew it was a sweet deal as soon as we walked through it so we put in a cash offer for full asking price (135K). So few hours later, my agent calls me and tells me the house has 15 showings scheduled this weekend and the seller will make his/her decision Monday. ugh.

Well, I really want this property so my question for you all,  is there anything I can do to improve my chances at this point? Any tips or tricks?   I was thinking of upping my offer by 2K and hoping no one else goes above asking price..The numbers still are great at this price.  Do cash buyers typically go above asking price?   Thanks for any help with this..
