Blackjack is a game that evokes images of a roller coaster. It is a game that starts out slowly, but gradually gains speed. As you ramp up your bank roll, you feel as though you are slowly getting to the top of the coaster and then when you don’t expect it, the bottom drops out.
Blackjack is so similar to a roller coaster the similarities are eerie. As is the case with the popular fairground experience, your blackjack game will peak and things will seem as though they are going well for a while before it bottoms out one more time. Of course you have to be a gambler that is able to readjust to the ups … downs of the game simply because the game of blackjack is choked full with them.
If you like the little coaster, one that does not go too high or fast, then bet small. If you find the only way you can enjoy the rollercoaster ride is with a fatter bet, then hop aboard for the coaster ride of your life on the monster coaster. The high stakes gambler will love the view from the monster wild ride because he or she is not considering 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’s going up, that is all lovely, but when the cards "go south" and the coaster starts to twist and turn, you had better escape in a hurry.
If you don’t, you might not necessarily remember how much you enjoyed the view while your bank roll was "up". The only thing you will remember is a lot of uncertainties, a wicked ride … your head in the sky. As you are reminiscing on "what ifs", you won’t remember how "high up" you went but you will clearly recall that disastrous fall as clear as day.
