Blackjack is a game that evokes images of a roller coaster. Blackjack is a game that starts off slowly, but gradually picks up speed. As you build up your bankroll, you feel like you are getting up to the top of the coaster and then when you least expect it, the bottom falls.
Blackjack is so much like a rollercoaster the similarities are creepy. As is the case with the popular fair ground ride, your blackjack game will peak and things will seem to be going great for a while before it bottoms out again. Of course you have to be a player that can readjust to the ups … downs of the game especially given that the game of blackjack is choked full of them.
If you like the little coaster, a coaster that can’t go too high or fast, then bet small. If you find the only way that you can enjoy the mad ride is with a much bigger wager, then hop on board for the mad ride of your life on the monster coaster. The high-roller will love the view from the monster rollercoaster because he/she is not thinking on the drop as they rush quickly 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 an awesome feeling, but when the cards "go south" and the coaster starts to twist and turn, you had better bail out in a hurry.
If you do not, you might not necessarily remember how much you enjoyed the good life while your bankroll was "up". The only thing you will remember is a lot of uncertainties, a cool ride and your head in the sky. As you are thinking on "what ifs", you won’t recount how "high up" you went but you will recall that disastrous drop as clear as day.
