black jack is a game that most definitely reminds me a roller coaster. It’s a game that starts slowly, but gradually gets faster. As you grow your bankroll, you feel like you are slowly getting to the top of the coaster and then when you aren’t expecting it, the bottom drops out.
black jack is so much like a wild ride the similarities are creepy. As is the case with the popular fair ground experience, your black jack game will peak and things will appear as though they are going well for a time before it bottoms out once again. Of course you have to be a gambler who is able to adjust well to the ups … downs of the game simply because the game of black jack is awash with them.
If you like the little coaster, a coaster that can’t go too high or fast, then bet small. If you find the only way that you can enjoy the coaster ride is with a fatter wager, then hop aboard for the rollercoaster ride of your life on the monster coaster. The high roller will love the view from the monster crazy ride because he or she is not mentally processing the drop as they rush quickly to the top of the game.
A win goal and a loss limit works well in black jack, but very few gamblers adhere to it. In blackjack, if you "get on the rollercoaster" as it is going up, that is an amazing feeling, but when the cards "go south" and the coaster starts to twist and turn, you had better bail out in a hurry.
If you do not, you will not necessarily recall how much you enjoyed the view while your cash was "up". The only thing you will remember is a lot of uncertainties, a wicked ride … your head in the sky. As you are reminiscing on "what ifs", you won’t clearly remember how "high up" you went but you will clearly remember that catastrophic drop as clear as day.
