Blackjack is a game that evokes images of a rollercoaster. Blackjack is a game that starts slowly, but gradually picks up speed. As you grow your bankroll, you feel like you are slowly getting to the top of the coaster and then when you are not expecting it, the bottom falls.
Blackjack is so very similar to a wild ride the similarities are bizarre. As with the popular fair ground ride, your blackjack game will peak and things will appear to be going great for awhile before it bottoms out again. Of course you have to be a bettor who is able to readjust to the ups … downs of the game especially given that the game of black jack is full of them.
If you like the little coaster, one that doesn’t go too high or fast, then bet small. If you find the only way you can enjoy the coaster ride is with a bigger bet, then hop aboard for the rollercoaster ride of your life on the monster coaster. The high-roller will love the view from the monster wild ride because they are not mentally processing 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 blackjack, 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 starts to twist and turn, you had better escape in a hurry.
If you don’t, you may not necessarily recollect how much you enjoyed everything 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 clearly recall how "high up" you went but you will have memories of that catastrophic drop as clear as day.
