black jack is a game that reminds me of a roller coaster. It’s a game that begins slowly, but gradually picks up speed. As you build up your bankroll, you feel as though you are getting up to the top of the coaster and then when you don’t expect it, the bottom falls out.

black jack is so akin to a crazy ride the similarities are alarming. As is the case with the popular fair ground experience, your blackjack game will peak and things will seem as though they are going great for a while before it bottoms out one more time. You definitely have to be a gambler that’s able to readjust to the ups … downs of the game mainly because the game of blackjack is packed full with them.

If you like the little coaster, one that doesn’t go too high or fast, then bet small. If you find the only way you can enjoy the crazy ride is with a much bigger bet, then hop on board for the roller coaster ride of your life on the monster coaster. The high-stakes gambler will love the view from the monster wild ride because he/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 black jack, if you "get on the rollercoaster" as it is going up, that’s awesome, 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 will not recount how much you enjoyed the view while your profit was "up". The only thing you will remember is a lot of uncertainties, a mad ride … your head in the sky. As you are recalling "what ifs", you won’t recount how "high up" you went but you will recollect that catastrophic drop as clear as day.
