black jack is a game that brings to mind an image of a wild ride. It is a game that starts slowly, but gradually picks up the pace. As you grow your bank roll, you feel like you are getting to the top of the coaster and then when you least expect it, the bottom drops.

black jack is so remarkably like a wild ride the similarities are spooky. As with the popular fair ground experience, your black jack game will peak and things will be going well for a time before it bottoms out again. You must be a bettor who can adjust well to the ups … downs of the game mainly 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 coaster ride is with a larger wager, then hop on board for the rollercoaster 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 gamblers adhere to it. In blackjack, if you "get on the rollercoaster" as it is going up, that is all lovely, but when the cards "go south" and the coaster starts to twist and turn, you had better escape in a hurry.

If you do not, you will not recount 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 sky. As you are recounting "what ifs", you won’t clearly recount how "high up" you went but you will clearly remember that disastrous drop as clear as day.
