Twenty-One is a casino game that reminds me a little of a rollercoaster. It’s a game that starts slow but progressively gets faster. As you slowly build up your bank roll, you feel like you’re reaching the top of the coaster and then when you don’t expect it, the bottom drops out.

Pontoon is so much like a coaster the resemblances are terrifying. As with the favorite fair ride, your twenty-one casino game will peak and everything will be going well for a time before it bottoms out once more. You’ve got to be a gambler that can adjust well to the ups and downs of the casino game because the game of chemin de fer is full of them.

If you like the tiny coaster, one that does not go too high or quickly, then bet small. If you discover the only way you can take pleasure in the adventure is with a larger gamble, then hop on board for the adventure of your life on the colossal coaster. The high roller will enjoy the sights from the huge rollercoaster because they aren’t considering the drop as they speed head first to the top of the game.

A success target and a loss limit works well in black jack, but very few bettors stick to it. In pontoon, if you "get on the rollercoaster" as it is going up, that is fantastic, but when the cards "go bad" and the rollercoaster begins to twist and turn, you’d best better get off in a hurry.

If you don’t, you won’t recall how much you loved the sights while your money was "up". The only thing you’ll recall is a ton of uncertainties, a thrilling adventure and your head in the sky. As you are reminiscing on "what ifs" you will not remember how "high up" you went but you will remember that devastating drop as clear as day.

Pontoon can be a very beatable casino game. It’s a casino game of highs, a game of lows and where it will stops is entirely up to you and how well you can figure out whether to get off the coaster or remain on the ride.
