Blackjack is a game that reminds me of a rollercoaster. It’s a game that starts slowly, but gradually gains speed. As you ramp up your bankroll, you feel like you are slowly getting to the top of the coaster and then when you least expect it, the bottom drops out.
Blackjack is so akin to a rollercoaster the similarities are spooky. As with the popular amusement park experience, your black jack game will peak and things will appear as though they are going well for awhile before it bottoms out once again. You have to be a gambler who’s able to readjust to the ups … downs of the game because 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 mad ride is with a larger wager, then hop on board for the roller coaster ride of your life on the monster coaster. The high-stakes gambler will love the view from the monster wild ride because he/she is not considering the drop as they rush quickly to the top of the game.
A win goal and a loss limit works well in black jack, but very few bettors adhere to it. In black jack, if you "get on the rollercoaster" as it’s going up, that’s a lovely feeling, but when the cards "go south" and the coaster begins to flip and turn, you had better bail out in a hurry.
If you do not, you may not naturally recount how much you enjoyed the good life while your cash was "up". The only thing you will remember is a lot of uncertainties, an awesome ride and your head in the air. As you are reminiscing on "what ifs", you won’t clearly recount how "high up" you went but you will clearly remember that devastating drop as clear as day.
