Blackjack is a game that reminds me somewhat of a wild ride. Black jack is a game that starts slowly, but gradually gets faster. As you build up your profit, you feel as though you are getting to the top of the coaster and then when you least expect it, the bottom falls out.

Blackjack is so similar to a crazy ride the similarities are alarming. As is the case with the popular amusement park ride, your black jack game will peak and things will appear as though they are going great for a time before it bottoms out yet again. You have to be a black jack player that will be able to readjust to the ups and downs of the game especially given that the game of blackjack is choked full of them.

If you like the small coaster, a coaster that doesn’t 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 bet, then jump aboard for the coaster ride of your life on the monster coaster. The high rolling gambler will love the view from the monster rollercoaster 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 gamblers adhere to it. In blackjack, if you "get on the rollercoaster" as it’s going up, that is a lovely feeling, but when the cards "go south" and the coaster starts to toss and turn, you had better escape in a hurry.

If you don’t, you will not naturally remember how much you enjoyed everything while your bankroll was "up". The only thing you will remember is a lot of uncertainties, a wicked ride … your head in the clouds. As you are reminiscing on "what ifs", you won’t clearly recall how "high up" you went but you will naturally remember that catastrophic drop as clear as day.
