There are two versions of Pontoon. One is the Australian variation, which is referred to as Spanish 21. The second one, the one we’re covering on this page, is the UK / British variation.
Pontoon Blackjack is (usually) played with 8 decks, however, this will vary from casino to casino. For example, only 2 decks are used at Bovada. The cards are shuffled and dealt the same way as traditional blackjack, too. There are a couple of unique differences, though. One unique difference is that the 10-point cards are removed. Pontoon is usually played with 6-8 regular decks of 52 cards. The best hand is Pontoon (blackjack), which means an Ace and 10 value card and it pays 2:1. Next inline, is a 5 card hand – referred as 5 Card Trick. Here the total value of your hand doesn’t matter as long as you didn’t bust (meaning 5 card hand of 15 beats dealers 20).
We cover the rules of this unique blackjack game below.
*Pontoon is an exciting multi-hand type of Blackjack that offers players the opportunity of playing up to three hands at the same time. Each hand is played only against the dealer independently, which basically provides players with the chance of winning several times.
