Blackjack is a game that most definitely reminds me a rollercoaster. It’s a game that starts slowly, but gradually gains speed. As you grow your bank roll, you feel like you are on your way to the top of the coaster and then when you don’t expect it, the bottom falls.

Blackjack is so remarkably like a roller coaster the similarities are striking. As is the case with the popular fair experience, your black jack game will peak and things will appear as though they are going well for a time before it bottoms out once again. Of course you have to be a bettor that is able to adjust well to the ups … downs of the game mainly because the game of blackjack is full of them.

If you like the little coaster, one that cannot go too high or fast, then bet small. If you find the only way you can enjoy the mad ride is with a bigger bet, then jump aboard for the ride of your life on the monster coaster. The high-roller will love the view from the monster roller coaster because he/she is not thinking on 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 black jack, if you "get on the rollercoaster" as it’s going up, that’s just great, but when the cards "go south" and the coaster begins to twist and turn, you had better bail out in a hurry.

If you do not, you will 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, a cool ride … your head in the sky. As you are thinking on "what ifs", you won’t easily recount how "high up" you went but you will recollect that catastrophic drop as clear as day.
