Blackjack is a game that reminds me of a wild ride. It’s a game that begins slowly, but gradually gets faster. As you build up your profit, you feel like you are making moves to the top of the coaster and then when you are not expecting it, the bottom drops out.

black jack is so much like a rollercoaster the similarities are ghastly. As with the popular amusement experience, your black jack game will peak and things will be going well for a while before it bottoms out yet again. Of course you have to be a blackjack player who can readjust to the ups and downs of the game because the game of black jack is choked full of them.

If you like the petite coaster, one that doesn’t go too high or fast, then bet small. If you find the only way that you can enjoy the mad ride is with a much bigger wager, then jump aboard for the ride of your life on the monster coaster. The high stakes gambler will love the view from the monster rollercoaster because he/she is not thinking about 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 players adhere to it. In blackjack, if you "get on the rollercoaster" as it’s going up, that is an amazing feeling, but when the cards "go south" and the coaster starts to toss and turn, you had better escape in a hurry.

If you do not, you will not remember how much you enjoyed everything while your cash was "up". The only thing you will remember is a lot of uncertainties, an amazing ride … your head in the stratosphere. As you are recalling "what ifs", you won’t easily recount how "high up" you went but you will clearly recount that mortifying fall as clear as day.
