Blackjack is a game that somehow reminds me of a rollercoaster. It is a game that starts off slowly, but gradually picks up speed. As you grow your bank roll, you feel like you are on your way to the top of the coaster and then when you least expect it, the bottom falls.
Blackjack is so much like a rollercoaster the similarities are hair-raising. As with the popular amusement 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 definitely have to be a black jack player who is able to adjust well to the ups and downs of the game mainly because the game of black jack is awash with them.
If you like the little coaster, one that does not go too high or fast, then bet small. If you find the only way that you can enjoy the roller coaster ride is with a much bigger wager, then hop on for the mad ride of your life on the monster coaster. The deep pocket gambler will love the view from the monster rollercoaster because he or she is not thinking about 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 bettors adhere to it. In blackjack, if you "get on the rollercoaster" as it is going up, that is terrific, but when the cards "go south" and the coaster starts to twist and turn, you had better escape in a hurry.
If you do not, you may not necessarily recount how much you enjoyed the good life while your cash was "up". The only thing you will remember is a lot of uncertainties, an amazing ride … your head in the clouds. As you are reminiscing on "what ifs", you won’t always remember how "high up" you went but you will naturally remember that disastrous fall as clear as day.
