Blackjack is a game that evokes images of a rollercoaster. Black jack is a game that begins slowly, but gradually gets faster. As you build up your bank roll, you feel as though you are on your way to the top of the coaster and then when you least expect it, the bottom falls out.

Blackjack is so incredibly like a wild ride the similarities are frightening. As with the popular fair ride, your black jack game will peak and things will seem to be going well for a while before it bottoms out yet again. You definitely have to be a black jack player who can readjust to the ups … downs of the game simply because the game of black jack is choked full with them.

If you like the petite coaster, a coaster that cannot go too high or fast, then bet small. If you find the only way you can enjoy the coaster ride is with a larger bet, then hop on for the ride of your life on the monster coaster. The high roller will love the view from the monster wild ride because he or she is not mentally processing the drop as they rush quickly 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’s going up, that’s a lovely feeling, but when the cards "go south" and the coaster begins to toss and turn, you had better bail out in a hurry.

If you do not, you might not easily recount how much you enjoyed everything while your bank roll was "up". The only thing you will remember is a lot of uncertainties, an awesome ride … your head in the stratosphere. As you are thinking on "what ifs", you won’t recall how "high up" you went but you will clearly remember that devastating drop as clear as day.
