Blackjack Is Like A Rollercoaster
by Silas on May 11th, 2026
Blackjack is a game that evokes images of a rollercoaster. It’s a game that kicks off slowly, but gradually picks up the pace. As you grow your bankroll, you feel like you are getting up to the top of the coaster and then when you aren’t expecting it, the bottom drops.
Blackjack is so much like a rollercoaster the similarities are creepy. As with the popular amusement ride, your blackjack game will peak and things will appear to be going well for awhile before it bottoms out again. Of course you have to be a gambler that can readjust to the ups … downs of the game given that the game of blackjack is full of them.
If you like the mini coaster, one that will 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 wager, then jump aboard for the roller coaster ride of your life on the monster coaster. The high-roller will love the view from the monster roller coaster because they are not thinking on the drop as they rush quickly to the top of the game.
A win goal and a loss limit works well in black jack, but very few players adhere to it. In black jack, if you "get on the rollercoaster" as it is going up, that is terrific, but when the cards "go south" and the coaster begins to toss and turn, you had better bail out in a hurry.
If you don’t, you may not find it easy to recollect how much you enjoyed the view while your profit was "up". The only thing you will remember is a lot of uncertainties, a wicked 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 remember that catastrophic fall as clear as day.
