Blackjack is a game that reminds me of a crazy ride. It’s a game that starts off slowly, but gradually gains speed. As you grow your bank roll, you feel as though you are on your way to the top of the coaster and then when you are not expecting it, the bottom drops.

black jack is so akin to a crazy ride the similarities are eerie. As is the case with the popular fair ground ride, your blackjack game will peak and things will seem to be going great for a while before it bottoms out again. Of course you have to be a bettor who can adjust well to the ups and downs of the game because the game of blackjack is awash 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 bigger wager, then jump on for the mad ride of your life on the monster coaster. The big money player will love the view from the monster roller coaster 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 gamblers adhere to it. In blackjack, if you "get on the rollercoaster" as it’s going up, that’s just great, but when the cards "go south" and the coaster begins to twist and turn, you had better bail out in a hurry.

If you do not, you might not easily recount how much you enjoyed life while your bankroll was "up". The only thing you will remember is a lot of uncertainties, a thrilling ride … your head in the stratosphere. As you are recounting "what ifs", you won’t easily recount how "high up" you went but you will have memories of that disastrous fall as clear as day.
