Pontoon Basics

Play the British styled Pontoon Blackjack at Cool Cat Casino and win big bonuses! If you're bored with the traditional Blackjack games, Pontoon Blackjack is the best option for you. Pontoon online Blackjack has its own distinct terms and rules that set it apart from other online Blackjack games. The goal of the game remains the same just like any other Blackjack game: get as close to 21 as possible and beat the Dealer's hand.

Pontoon Blackjack consists of 8 standard 52-card decks. All the cards have the same value as in the regular Blackjack -- all numbered cards are the value of their number, all Jacks, Queens, and Kings are ten points each. The Ace can either be one point or eleven points depending on which is favorable. The Pontoon Blackjack starts off when you place your bet along with the other players. The Dealer will then deal two cards face up to each player. Two cards will be dealt for the Dealer facing down. Dealer has no 'up card' in Pontoon Blackjack.

With a Pontoon or a 5-Card Trick, you'll win your bet 2 to 1 instead of the regular Blackjack 1 1/2 to 1. A Pontoon 5-Card Trick is a hand with five cards that has not busted, or over twenty one points. All of the Pontoon 5-Card tricks have the same value the total number of points does not matter. A Pontoon hand otherwise called a "Blackjack" hand beats a Pontoon 5-Card Trick, but a 5-Card Trick beats all other hands.
