The slow rhythmic motion of petting or stroking a
cat has some really good associations with it. Apart from just being
warm and comforting, petting a cat that slowly purrs and oozes
contentment also creates a calm owner that feels good about himself
and this has been proven by the increase of serotonin in the body
when petting a cat. Serotonin is the feel good chemical in the blood
stream that is created naturally when people feel good about
themselves, are calm and happy. Petting a cat is one way to increase
the feel good serotonin in the body. Another way to increase the feel
good feeling without being stresses is to play casino games and
especially online casino games such as online blackjack where the
general atmosphere is much more relaxed and happy. In fact players
who are petting their cat at the same time as playing online blackjack are likely to make better decisions in the game and in some
cases succeed more. Online blackjack is a game of skill unlike many
of the other online casino games, it demands the full input of the
player that has to make decisions on how to proceed in the game. The
player is dealt two cards face up and the dealer receives two cards,
one face up and one face down. The player then has to make a decision
based on the cards he holds and the upturned card of the dealer,
whether to draw another card or to hold his cards as is.
