Blackjack is a game that reminds me somewhat of a rollercoaster. Black jack is a game that kicks off slowly, but gradually picks up speed. As you build up your bankroll, you feel as though you are slowly getting to the top of the coaster and then when you are not expecting it, the bottom falls.
Blackjack is so incredibly like a crazy ride the similarities are ghastly. As is the case with the popular amusement park experience, your blackjack game will peak and things will seem to be going well for a while before it bottoms out yet again. You most certainly have to be a blackjack player that shall be able to adjust well to the ups and downs of the game given that the game of blackjack is packed full of them.
If you like the little coaster, a coaster that will not go too high or fast, then bet small. If you find the only way you can enjoy the roller coaster ride is with a larger 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 rollercoaster because they are not thinking about 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 players adhere to it. In blackjack, if you "get on the rollercoaster" as it’s going up, that’s terrific, 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 will not naturally recall how much you enjoyed life while your bank roll was "up". The only thing you will remember is a lot of uncertainties, an amazing ride and your head in the sky. As you are recalling "what ifs", you won’t recall how "high up" you went but you will remember that devastating fall as clear as day.
