Blackjack is a game that somehow reminds me of a crazy ride. Black jack is a game that kicks off slowly, but gradually gets faster. As you slowly build up your bankroll, you feel like you are on your way to the top of the coaster and then when you aren’t expecting it, the bottom collapses.
Blackjack is so much like a roller coaster the similarities are alarming. As is the case with the popular amusement park ride, your blackjack game will peak and things will appear to be going great for a time before it bottoms out one more time. You most certainly have to be a player that’s able to readjust to the ups … downs of the game especially given that the game of black jack is choked full of them.
If you like the little coaster, one that will not go too high or fast, then bet small. If you find the only way that you can enjoy the crazy ride is with a fatter bet, then jump aboard for the ride of your life on the monster coaster. The big money player will love the view from the monster roller coaster because he/she is not thinking on the drop as they rush head first 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 blackjack, if you "get on the rollercoaster" as it is going up, that’s just great, but when the cards "go south" and the coaster begins to toss and turn, you had better get out in a hurry.
If you don’t, you may not naturally remember how much you enjoyed everything while your bank roll was "up". The only thing you will remember is a lot of uncertainties, a nice 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 naturally remember that devastating fall as clear as day.
