Blackjack is a game that reminds me somewhat of a rollercoaster. It is a game that starts out slowly, but gradually picks up the pace. As you slowly build up your profit, you feel like you are getting up to the top of the coaster and then when you aren’t expecting it, the bottom collapses.
black jack is so similar to a roller coaster the similarities are astonishing. As with the popular amusement ride, your blackjack game will peak and things will seem as though they are going well for awhile before it bottoms out one more time. Of course you have to be a bettor that can adjust well to the ups … downs of the game given that the game of blackjack is awash with them.
If you like the tiny coaster, one 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 fatter bet, then hop on board for the ride of your life on the monster coaster. The high-stakes gambler will love the view from the monster rollercoaster because he/she is not thinking about 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’s going up, that is awesome, but when the cards "go south" and the coaster begins to twist and turn, you had better get out in a hurry.
If you don’t, you might not recount how much you enjoyed the good life while your bankroll was "up". The only thing you will remember is a lot of uncertainties, a thrilling ride … your head in the clouds. As you are recalling "what ifs", you won’t always remember how "high up" you went but you will recollect that catastrophic drop as clear as day.
