Blackjack is a game that somehow reminds me of a crazy ride. It is a game that starts out slowly, but gradually picks up the pace. As you grow your bank roll, you feel like you are slowly getting to the top of the coaster and then when you least expect it, the bottom falls out.

Blackjack is so similar to a rollercoaster the similarities are unreal. As is the case with the popular amusement experience, your black jack game will peak and things will appear as though they are going great for a time before it bottoms out once again. Of course you have to be a bettor that can adjust well to the ups and downs of the game given that the game of black jack is choked full with them.

If you like the small coaster, a coaster that does 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 wager, then jump on for the crazy ride of your life on the monster coaster. The high roller will love the view from the monster wild 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 players adhere to it. In blackjack, if you "get on the rollercoaster" as it is going up, that’s awesome, but when the cards "go south" and the coaster starts to flip and turn, you had better get out in a hurry.

If you do not, you may not naturally recount how much you enjoyed life while your bank roll was "up". The only thing you will remember is a lot of uncertainties, a mad ride … your head in the clouds. As you are reminiscing on "what ifs", you won’t recount how "high up" you went but you will always remember that catastrophic drop as clear as day.
