Pontoon Blackjack Game General Information

Blackjack ranks as one of the very best casino table games of all time. It’s one of the few table games where the house edge isn’t as extreme, and you get to influence the outcome. More specifically, Pontoon is adored due to a range of rule adaptations—any five-card hand is a winner, for instance, and you can make optional side bets to make things very interesting!

Pontoon Blackjack Game Guide

Our casino might be separate from the BetUS Sportsbook online, but thanks to games like Pontoon, the product is equally as stimulating. On that note, if Pontoon is new to you, you’ll be pleased to know that it’s easy to learn. Simply try and get as close to 21 as you can while collecting cards from eight decks. 

This mirrors regular blackjack games, but Nucleus Gaming has chucked a curveball in with optional side bets, also known as a Sweet 16 Bonus Game. You can score extra payouts if combinations like two aces, pairs of 2s or 7s, 16-21 points, or a single ace materialize. 

How to Play the Pontoon Blackjack Game

Access Pontoon with our BetUS casino online and you will see three open seats at the table. Simply tap the large rectangle to stump up a wager for a regular hand and back this up with a side bet if desired. Based on the cards you receive, you must then “Stand”, “Hit”, “Double”, or “Split” in an effort to beat the dealer.

Minimum and Maximum Bet Amounts for the Pontoon Blackjack Game

Each seat at the table facilitates a $1 bet minimum and a $100 bet maximum. Additionally, the same range applies to the Sweet 16 side bets.

Game Controls for thePontoon Blackjack Game

The regular controls in Pontoon include “Hit”, “Double”, “Stand”, and “Split”, as referenced above. In addition, you’ll see pre-deal commands like “Undo”, “Clear”, and “Deal”, which only appear once you’ve chucked some cash into the mix.
