black jack is a game that reminds me somewhat of a wild ride. It is a game that starts out slowly, but gradually picks up the pace. As you grow your bank roll, you feel like you are slowly getting to the top of the coaster and then when you least expect it, the bottom falls out.
black jack is so very similar to a wild ride the similarities are bizarre. As with the popular amusement park experience, your blackjack game will peak and things will seem as though they are going great for a time before it bottoms out once again. Of course you have to be a bettor that is able to readjust to the ups … downs of the game because the game of blackjack is full of them.
If you like the tiny coaster, one that can’t go too high or fast, then bet small. If you find the only way that you can enjoy the rollercoaster ride is with a bigger wager, 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 roller coaster because he/she is not mentally processing the drop as they rush headlong 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’s going up, that is awesome, but when the cards "go south" and the coaster starts to flip and turn, you had better escape in a hurry.
If you do not, you may 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 thrilling ride and your head in the clouds. As you are remembering "what ifs", you won’t remember how "high up" you went but you will recollect that catastrophic fall as clear as day.
