Blackjack is a game that somehow reminds me of a crazy ride. Blackjack is a game that starts out slowly, but gradually gains speed. As you build up your bank roll, you feel like you are getting to the top of the coaster and then when you aren’t expecting it, the bottom collapses.

Blackjack is so remarkably like a roller coaster the similarities are astounding. As is the case with the popular fairground ride, your black jack game will peak and things will appear to be going well for a time before it bottoms out yet again. Of course you have to be a black jack player that will be able to readjust to the ups and downs of the game because the game of black jack is awash with them.

If you like the small coaster, a coaster that cannot go too high or fast, then bet small. If you find the only way you can enjoy the ride is with a much bigger wager, then hop aboard for the mad ride of your life on the monster coaster. The high-roller will love the view from the monster rollercoaster because he or she is 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 black jack, but very few players adhere to it. In blackjack, 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 bail out in a hurry.

If you do not, you may not necessarily recall how much you enjoyed life while your bankroll was "up". The only thing you will remember is a lot of uncertainties, a nice ride and your head in the air. As you are recalling "what ifs", you won’t find it easy to recollect how "high up" you went but you will naturally remember that disappointing drop as clear as day.
