Blackjack is a game that reminds me somewhat of a rollercoaster. It’s a game that begins slowly, but gradually gets faster. As you slowly build up your profit, you feel like you are getting to the top of the coaster and then when you aren’t expecting it, the bottom falls.

Blackjack is so much like a roller coaster the similarities are astonishing. As with the popular amusement experience, your blackjack game will peak and things will appear to be going well for a time before it bottoms out yet again. You have to be a gambler who’s able to readjust to the ups … downs of the game mainly because the game of black jack is packed full with them.

If you like the little coaster, a coaster that does not go too high or fast, then bet small. If you find the only way you can enjoy the crazy ride is with a larger bet, then hop aboard for the coaster ride of your life on the monster coaster. The high-stakes gambler will love the view from the monster crazy 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 players 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 find it easy to recollect how much you enjoyed the view while your bankroll was "up". The only thing you will remember is a lot of uncertainties, a crazy fun ride and your head in the air. As you are thinking on "what ifs", you won’t clearly recall how "high up" you went but you will have memories of that mortifying fall as clear as day.
