Blackjack is a game that somehow reminds me of a rollercoaster. It’s a game that starts off slowly, but gradually picks up the pace. 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 falls.

Blackjack is so remarkably like a rollercoaster the similarities are eerie. As with the popular amusement park experience, your black jack game will peak and things will seemingly be going great for a while before it bottoms out again. You most certainly have to be a blackjack player who can readjust to the ups … downs of the game mainly because the game of blackjack is awash with them.

If you like the small coaster, a coaster that cannot go too high or fast, then bet small. If you find the only way you can enjoy the ride is with a larger wager, then hop on board for the ride of your life on the monster coaster. The high roller will love the view from the monster rollercoaster because he or she is not mentally processing 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 players adhere to it. In blackjack, if you "get on the rollercoaster" as it’s going up, that’s an awesome 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 find it easy to recollect how much you enjoyed everything while your bank roll was "up". The only thing you will remember is a lot of uncertainties, a mad ride … your head in the stratosphere. As you are recalling "what ifs", you won’t clearly recount how "high up" you went but you will naturally remember that disappointing fall as clear as day.
