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

Blackjack is so similar to a crazy ride the similarities are astounding. As is the case with the popular amusement park experience, your blackjack game will peak and things will seem as though they are going great for a while before it bottoms out again. You have to be a gambler that can readjust to the ups … downs of the game simply because the game of black jack is choked full of them.

If you like the small 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 bigger bet, then jump on for the roller coaster ride of your life on the monster coaster. The high roller 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 blackjack, if you "get on the rollercoaster" as it is going up, that’s a lovely feeling, but when the cards "go south" and the coaster starts to flip and turn, you had better get out in a hurry.

If you do not, you might not always remember how much you enjoyed everything while your bank roll was "up". The only thing you will remember is a lot of uncertainties, a wicked ride and your head in the sky. As you are remembering "what ifs", you won’t always remember how "high up" you went but you will have memories of that mortifying drop as clear as day.
