Blackjack is a game that somehow reminds me of a rollercoaster. It’s a game that starts out slowly, but gradually gains speed. As you build up your bankroll, you feel like you are making moves to the top of the coaster and then when you least expect it, the bottom drops.

Blackjack is so much like a rollercoaster the similarities are astonishing. As is the case with the popular amusement experience, your blackjack game will peak and things will seemingly be going well for a while before it bottoms out again. You have to be a black jack player that’s able to adjust well to the ups … downs of the game simply because the game of black jack is full of them.

If you like the small coaster, a coaster that does not go too high or fast, then bet small. If you find the only way that you can enjoy the mad ride is with a bigger bet, then hop on for the mad ride of your life on the monster coaster. The big spender will love the view from the monster wild ride 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 black jack, but very few bettors adhere to it. In black jack, 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 toss and turn, you had better escape in a hurry.

If you do not, you may not necessarily recall how much you enjoyed everything while your bank roll was "up". The only thing you will remember is a lot of uncertainties, a thrilling ride and your head in the sky. As you are recalling "what ifs", you won’t clearly recount how "high up" you went but you will always remember that devastating fall as clear as day.
