Blackjack is a game that somehow reminds me of a wild ride. It’s a game that starts off slowly, but gradually gains speed. As you build up your bank roll, you feel as though you are getting to the top of the coaster and then when you least expect it, the bottom drops out.

Blackjack is so remarkably like a rollercoaster the similarities are hair-raising. As with the popular fair ground experience, your black jack game will peak and things will seem as though they are going well for a while before it bottoms out once again. You must be a black jack player that’s able to adjust well to the ups and downs of the game especially given that the game of black jack is full of them.

If you like the tiny coaster, a coaster that won’t go too high or fast, then bet small. If you find the only way that you can enjoy the rollercoaster ride is with a much bigger bet, then jump aboard for the rollercoaster ride of your life on the monster coaster. The deep pocket gambler will love the view from the monster wild ride because he/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 gamblers adhere to it. In black jack, if you "get on the rollercoaster" as it’s going up, that is an awesome feeling, but when the cards "go south" and the coaster begins to flip and turn, you had better get out in a hurry.

If you do not, you may not easily recount how much you enjoyed the view while your bank roll was "up". The only thing you will remember is a lot of uncertainties, a cool ride and your head in the stratosphere. As you are recounting "what ifs", you won’t remember how "high up" you went but you will clearly remember that disappointing fall as clear as day.
