Blackjack is a game that somehow reminds me of a roller coaster. It is a game that starts slowly, but gradually picks up the pace. As you ramp up your bank roll, you feel as though you are getting to the top of the coaster and then when you don’t expect it, the bottom drops out.

Blackjack is so incredibly like a rollercoaster the similarities are ghastly. As with the popular fairground ride, your black jack game will peak and things will appear to be going great for a time before it bottoms out one more time. You have to be a player who can adjust well to the ups and downs of the game simply because the game of blackjack is choked full of them.

If you like the petite coaster, 1 that can’t go too high or fast, then bet small. If you find the only way you can enjoy the crazy ride is with a fatter wager, then hop on board for the ride of your life on the monster coaster. The high stakes gambler will love the view from the monster roller coaster because he/she is not mentally processing the drop as they rush head first 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 awesome feeling, but when the cards "go south" and the coaster starts to flip and turn, you had better bail out in a hurry.

If you don’t, you may not necessarily recount how much you enjoyed life while your cash was "up". The only thing you will remember is a lot of uncertainties, a crazy fun ride … your head in the clouds. As you are remembering "what ifs", you won’t easily recount how "high up" you went but you will recall that disastrous drop as clear as day.
