black jack is a game that brings to mind an image of a crazy ride. It’s a game that kicks off slowly, but gradually gets faster. As you ramp up your bankroll, you feel as though you are on your way to the top of the coaster and then when you aren’t expecting it, the bottom drops out.

black jack is so akin to a rollercoaster the similarities are striking. As with the popular amusement park ride, your blackjack game will peak and things will seem to be going well for awhile before it bottoms out one more time. You have to be a player that’s able to adjust well to the ups and downs of the game because the game of black jack is awash with them.

If you like the petite coaster, a coaster that can’t go too high or fast, then bet small. If you find the only way that you can enjoy the coaster ride is with a much bigger bet, then jump aboard for the mad 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 thinking on the drop as they rush headlong to the top of the game.

A win goal and a loss limit works well in black jack, but very few players adhere to it. In black jack, if you "get on the rollercoaster" as it’s going up, that’s all lovely, but when the cards "go south" and the coaster starts to flip and turn, you had better escape in a hurry.

If you don’t, you will not necessarily remember how much you enjoyed life while your bank roll was "up". The only thing you will remember is a lot of uncertainties, a great ride … your head in the sky. As you are remembering "what ifs", you won’t recall how "high up" you went but you will recall that catastrophic drop as clear as day.
