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

black jack is so akin to a wild ride the similarities are ghastly. As with the popular amusement park experience, your blackjack game will peak and things will appear as though they are going well for awhile before it bottoms out again. You most certainly have to be a blackjack player that’s able to readjust to the ups … downs of the game mainly because the game of blackjack is packed full of them.

If you like the little coaster, one 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 bigger wager, then jump on for the mad ride of your life on the monster coaster. The high roller will love the view from the monster rollercoaster because he or she is not mentally processing the drop as they rush headlong to the top of the game.

A win goal and a loss limit works well in blackjack, but very few players adhere to it. In black jack, if you "get on the rollercoaster" as it is going up, that is awesome, but when the cards "go south" and the coaster starts to toss and turn, you had better escape in a hurry.

If you do not, you might not easily recount how much you enjoyed everything while your cash was "up". The only thing you will remember is a lot of uncertainties, an awesome ride … your head in the sky. As you are thinking on "what ifs", you won’t recall how "high up" you went but you will clearly recall that devastating drop as clear as day.
