Blackjack is a game that reminds me of a rollercoaster. Blackjack is a game that starts out slowly, but gradually picks up speed. As you slowly build up your profit, you feel as though you are getting up to the top of the coaster and then when you don’t expect it, the bottom drops.
Blackjack is so remarkably like a wild ride the similarities are unreal. As is the case with the popular fair ride, your black jack game will peak and things will be going well for a time before it bottoms out one more time. You have to be a black jack player who’s able to adjust well to the ups and downs of the game simply because the game of blackjack is awash with 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 fatter wager, then hop aboard for the crazy ride of your life on the monster coaster. The big spender will love the view from the monster roller coaster because he/she is not mentally processing the drop as they rush head first to the top of the game.
A win goal and a loss limit works well in blackjack, but very few bettors adhere to it. In black jack, if you "get on the rollercoaster" as it is going up, that’s an awesome feeling, but when the cards "go south" and the coaster begins to twist and turn, you had better bail out in a hurry.
If you don’t, you may not naturally remember how much you enjoyed everything while your bankroll was "up". The only thing you will remember is a lot of uncertainties, a mad ride … your head in the clouds. As you are recounting "what ifs", you won’t recount how "high up" you went but you will clearly remember that disappointing fall as clear as day.
