Blackjack Is Like A Wild Ride
Blackjack is a game that evokes images of a roller coaster. Black jack is a game that starts off slowly, but gradually gains speed. As you build up your profit, you feel like you are slowly getting to the top of the coaster and then when you least expect it, the bottom falls out.
Blackjack is so much like a rollercoaster the similarities are alarming. As with the popular fair experience, your blackjack game will peak and things will seem as though they are going well for a time before it bottoms out again. Undoubtedly you have to be a gambler who is able to adjust well to the ups … downs of the game because the game of black jack is awash with them.
If you like the little coaster, a coaster that can’t go too high or fast, then bet small. If you find the only way you can enjoy the crazy ride is with a fatter wager, then jump aboard for the rollercoaster ride of your life on the monster coaster. The big money player will love the view from the monster wild ride because he or she is not thinking on the drop as they rush head first 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 is all lovely, but when the cards "go south" and the coaster begins to twist and turn, you had better escape in a hurry.
If you don’t, you will not necessarily remember 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 air. As you are recalling "what ifs", you won’t easily recount how "high up" you went but you will always remember that devastating fall as clear as day.
