Blackjack Is Like A Wild Ride

Blackjack is a game that evokes images of a wild ride. Blackjack is a game that begins slowly, but gradually gains speed. As you grow your profit, you feel like you are making moves to the top of the coaster and then when you least expect it, the bottom falls.
Blackjack is so akin to a wild ride the similarities are frightening. As is the case with the popular fair ground experience, your blackjack game will peak and things will appear to be going great for a while before it bottoms out once again. Of course you have to be a bettor who is able to adjust well to the ups and downs of the game given that the game of black jack is choked full with them.
If you like the mini coaster, a coaster that can’t go too high or fast, then bet small. If you find the only way you can enjoy the coaster ride is with a bigger bet, then jump aboard for the coaster ride of your life on the monster coaster. The high rolling gambler will love the view from the monster rollercoaster 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 gamblers adhere to it. In blackjack, if you "get on the rollercoaster" as it’s going up, that is an awesome feeling, 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 recall how much you enjoyed everything while your cash was "up". The only thing you will remember is a lot of uncertainties, a crazy fun ride … your head in the stratosphere. As you are recounting "what ifs", you won’t clearly recall how "high up" you went but you will have memories of that mortifying drop as clear as day.
