Blackjack is a game that reminds me of a wild ride. It is a game that begins slowly, but gradually picks up speed. As you ramp up your profit, you feel as though you are getting to the top of the coaster and then when you least expect it, the bottom drops out.
Blackjack is so much like a rollercoaster the similarities are astonishing. As with the popular fair experience, your black jack game will peak and things will seemingly be going great for awhile before it bottoms out one more time. You most certainly have to be a bettor that will be able to readjust to the ups … downs of the game simply because the game of black jack is full of them.
If you like the tiny coaster, one that doesn’t go too high or fast, then bet small. If you find the only way you can enjoy the coaster ride is with a fatter bet, then hop aboard for the roller coaster 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 about the drop as they rush headlong to the top of the game.
A win goal and a loss limit works well in black jack, but very few players adhere to it. In blackjack, if you "get on the rollercoaster" as it is going up, that’s an amazing feeling, but when the cards "go south" and the coaster begins to toss and turn, you had better get out in a hurry.
If you don’t, you may not remember how much you enjoyed the good life while your cash was "up". The only thing you will remember is a lot of uncertainties, a thrilling ride and your head in the sky. As you are recounting "what ifs", you won’t recount how "high up" you went but you will always remember that catastrophic fall as clear as day.
