Blackjack is a game that somehow reminds me of a rollercoaster. Black jack is a game that starts slowly, but gradually picks up speed. As you ramp up your bankroll, you feel as though you are slowly getting to the top of the coaster and then when you are not expecting it, the bottom collapses.

black jack is so similar to a rollercoaster the similarities are hair-raising. As with the popular fairground ride, your black jack game will peak and things will seem as though they are going well for a while before it bottoms out once again. Of course you have to be a player who’s able to adjust well to the ups and downs of the game simply because the game of black jack is choked full of them.

If you like the tiny coaster, a coaster that does not go too high or fast, then bet small. If you find the only way you can enjoy the coaster ride is with a fatter wager, then jump on for the mad ride of your life on the monster coaster. The big spender will love the view from the monster crazy 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 gamblers adhere to it. In blackjack, if you "get on the rollercoaster" as it is going up, that’s all lovely, but when the cards "go south" and the coaster starts to flip and turn, you had better escape in a hurry.

If you don’t, you will not necessarily recollect how much you enjoyed life while your profit was "up". The only thing you will remember is a lot of uncertainties, a cool ride … your head in the air. As you are remembering "what ifs", you won’t always remember how "high up" you went but you will be reminded of that devastating drop as clear as day.
