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 grow your bank roll, you feel as though you are making moves to the top of the coaster and then when you least expect it, the bottom falls.

Blackjack is so much like a roller coaster the similarities are frightening. As is the case with the popular fair ride, your blackjack game will peak and things will appear as though they are going well for a time before it bottoms out again. Of course you have to be a player who is able to readjust to the ups … downs of the game simply because the game of blackjack is awash with them.

If you like the petite coaster, a coaster that does not go too high or fast, then bet small. If you find the only way you can enjoy the mad ride is with a fatter bet, then jump on for the roller coaster ride of your life on the monster coaster. The big money player will love the view from the monster wild ride because they are not mentally processing the drop as they rush hastily 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’s a lovely feeling, but when the cards "go south" and the coaster starts to twist and turn, you had better bail out in a hurry.

If you do not, you might not naturally recount how much you enjoyed the view while your profit was "up". The only thing you will remember is a lot of uncertainties, a crazy fun ride … your head in the clouds. As you are recalling "what ifs", you won’t recount how "high up" you went but you will clearly remember that disappointing drop as clear as day.
