Cryptologic Multi Player Pontoon Review
Cryptologic Multi Player Pontoon is played with 8 standard decks of
52 cards. The cards are shuffled after roughly one third of the shoe has been
used in play. Pontoon is similar to blackjack, and what is known as a Blackjack
(an Ace with a 10) is called a Pontoon. This hand wins in the same way that
a Blackjack does. Besides having the highest total under 21, the other way to
win is to obtain a hand containing 5 cards adding up to 21 or less. This also
pays out at 2/1. Another difference to note is that the Dealer wins all ties.
The player is forced to hit on any hand of hard 14. Note that both the dealer's
cards are dealt face down, and there is thus no Insurance option.
