Blackjack Is Like A Rollercoaster

Blackjack is a game that somehow reminds me of a roller coaster. Black jack is a game that starts slowly, but gradually gets faster. As you slowly build up your bank roll, you feel like you are making moves to the top of the coaster and then when you don’t expect it, the bottom drops out.

Blackjack is so akin to a roller coaster the similarities are spooky. As with the popular amusement park experience, your blackjack game will peak and things will appear to be going great for a time before it bottoms out one more time. Of course you have to be a player who’s able to readjust to the ups … downs of the game especially given that the game of blackjack is choked full with them.

If you like the mini coaster, one that won’t go too high or fast, then bet small. If you find the only way you can enjoy the ride is with a bigger wager, then jump aboard for the crazy ride of your life on the monster coaster. The big spender 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 begins to toss and turn, you had better bail out in a hurry.

If you do not, you will not recount how much you enjoyed everything while your bank roll was "up". The only thing you will remember is a lot of uncertainties, a mad ride and your head in the clouds. As you are reminiscing on "what ifs", you won’t always remember how "high up" you went but you will be reminded of that mortifying drop as clear as day.
