Blackjack is a game that brings to mind an image of a rollercoaster. Blackjack is a game that starts off slowly, but gradually picks up speed. As you grow your bankroll, you feel as though you are getting up to the top of the coaster and then when you aren’t expecting it, the bottom falls.

Blackjack is so remarkably like a wild ride the similarities are frightening. As with the popular amusement park ride, your black jack game will peak and things will seem to be going great for a time before it bottoms out yet again. You have to be a gambler that will be able to adjust well to the ups and downs of the game simply because the game of black jack is choked full with them.

If you like the mini coaster, one that can’t go too high or fast, then bet small. If you find the only way that you can enjoy the crazy ride is with a bigger bet, then hop on board for the coaster ride of your life on the monster coaster. The big spender will love the view from the monster roller coaster because they are not thinking about 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 gamblers adhere to it. In black jack, if you "get on the rollercoaster" as it’s going up, that is terrific, but when the cards "go south" and the coaster starts to twist and turn, you had better bail out in a hurry.

If you don’t, you will not necessarily recall how much you enjoyed life while your bankroll was "up". The only thing you will remember is a lot of uncertainties, an amazing ride and your head in the air. As you are recalling "what ifs", you won’t always remember how "high up" you went but you will recall that disappointing drop as clear as day.
