Blackjack is a game that reminds me somewhat of a rollercoaster. It is a game that starts slowly, but gradually picks up the pace. As you ramp up your bank roll, you feel like you are slowly getting to the top of the coaster and then when you are not expecting it, the bottom drops.
Blackjack is so much like a roller coaster the similarities are frightening. As is the case with the popular fairground ride, 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. You most certainly have to be a player who is able to adjust well to the ups and downs of the game because the game of blackjack 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 that you can enjoy the roller coaster ride is with a fatter wager, then jump on for the coaster ride of your life on the monster coaster. The deep pocket gambler will love the view from the monster wild ride because he/she is not mentally processing 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 black jack, if you "get on the rollercoaster" as it is going up, that’s an awesome feeling, but when the cards "go south" and the coaster begins to toss and turn, you had better get out in a hurry.
If you do not, you may not naturally remember how much you enjoyed everything while your bank roll was "up". The only thing you will remember is a lot of uncertainties, a cool ride and your head in the sky. As you are recalling "what ifs", you won’t find it easy to recollect how "high up" you went but you will clearly remember that disappointing fall as clear as day.
