Blackjack is a game that reminds me somewhat of a roller coaster. It is a game that begins slowly, but gradually gets faster. As you build up your bankroll, you feel like you are on your way to the top of the coaster and then when you aren’t expecting it, the bottom falls.

Blackjack is so very similar to a roller coaster the similarities are striking. As is the case with the popular fair experience, your black jack game will peak and things will appear to be going well for a while before it bottoms out again. Of course you have to be a gambler who is able to readjust to the ups … downs of the game because the game of black jack is choked full of them.

If you like the small coaster, a coaster that will not go too high or fast, then bet small. If you find the only way you can enjoy the rollercoaster ride is with a much bigger wager, then hop on board for the rollercoaster ride of your life on the monster coaster. The big money player will love the view from the monster roller coaster because they are not thinking about the drop as they rush quickly to the top of the game.

A win goal and a loss limit works well in black jack, but very few bettors 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 get out in a hurry.

If you don’t, you might not necessarily recall how much you enjoyed the view while your bankroll was "up". The only thing you will remember is a lot of uncertainties, a mad ride and your head in the stratosphere. As you are reminiscing on "what ifs", you won’t easily recount how "high up" you went but you will naturally remember that devastating fall as clear as day.
