black jack is a game that reminds me of a rollercoaster. It is a game that starts off slowly, but gradually picks up speed. As you ramp up your bank roll, you feel as though you are on your way to the top of the coaster and then when you are not expecting it, the bottom falls.

Blackjack is so incredibly like a crazy ride the similarities are striking. As is the case with the popular fair ground experience, your black jack game will peak and things will seemingly be going great for a time before it bottoms out yet again. You definitely have to be a player that is able to readjust to the ups … downs of the game given that the game of black jack is awash with them.

If you like the mini coaster, one 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 larger wager, then jump on for the rollercoaster ride of your life on the monster coaster. The high stakes gambler will love the view from the monster rollercoaster because he or she is not mentally processing the drop as they rush head first 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 black jack, if you "get on the rollercoaster" as it is going up, that’s terrific, but when the cards "go south" and the coaster starts to flip and turn, you had better get out in a hurry.

If you do not, you may not necessarily recount how much you enjoyed the good life while your bank roll was "up". The only thing you will remember is a lot of uncertainties, a great ride … your head in the clouds. As you are reminiscing on "what ifs", you won’t remember how "high up" you went but you will clearly recount that devastating fall as clear as day.
