Blackjack is a game that brings to mind an image of a wild ride. It’s a game that begins slowly, but gradually picks up the pace. As you build up your bank roll, you feel as though you are making moves to the top of the coaster and then when you least expect it, the bottom collapses.

black jack is so similar to a rollercoaster the similarities are frightening. As with the popular fair ground experience, your blackjack game will peak and things will appear as though they are going great for a time before it bottoms out yet again. You most certainly have to be a gambler who’s able to adjust well to the ups … downs of the game given that the game of black jack is full of them.

If you like the small coaster, one that can’t go too high or fast, then bet small. If you find the only way you can enjoy the roller coaster ride is with a fatter wager, then hop on for the rollercoaster ride of your life on the monster coaster. The deep pocket gambler will love the view from the monster rollercoaster because he or she is not considering 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 black jack, if you "get on the rollercoaster" as it’s going up, that is an awesome feeling, but when the cards "go south" and the coaster begins to twist and turn, you had better get out in a hurry.

If you do not, you may not recount how much you enjoyed the view while your profit was "up". The only thing you will remember is a lot of uncertainties, a thrilling ride … your head in the stratosphere. As you are thinking on "what ifs", you won’t recount how "high up" you went but you will be reminded of that disastrous drop as clear as day.
