Blackjack is a game that reminds me of a roller coaster. Black jack is a game that kicks off slowly, but gradually gets faster. As you grow your bank roll, you feel like you are getting up to the top of the coaster and then when you aren’t expecting it, the bottom drops.

Blackjack is so incredibly like a roller coaster the similarities are creepy. As with the popular fair ride, your black jack game will peak and things will appear as though they are going well for a while before it bottoms out again. You most certainly have to be a bettor that’s able to adjust well to the ups … downs of the game especially given that the game of black jack is packed full with them.

If you like the small coaster, a coaster that will not go too high or fast, then bet small. If you find the only way you can enjoy the roller coaster ride is with a larger bet, then hop on board for the ride of your life on the monster coaster. The high rolling gambler will love the view from the monster rollercoaster because he or she is not considering the drop as they rush headlong to the top of the game.

A win goal and a loss limit works well in black jack, but very few players 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 twist and turn, you had better escape in a hurry.

If you don’t, you will not always remember how much you enjoyed everything while your cash was "up". The only thing you will remember is a lot of uncertainties, a mad ride … your head in the clouds. As you are thinking on "what ifs", you won’t easily recount how "high up" you went but you will be reminded of that mortifying fall as clear as day.
