Pontoon Gold is played with 8 decks of regular playing cards and is played similarly to blackjack, which means that a player achieves "pontoon" when he or she acquires a combination of cards that equal as close to 21 points as possible without going over.

Pontoon Gold is another variation of the very old game of blackjack that has been popular in casinos for years, as well as being one of the most popular games in online gambling.

Overall, the rules are relatively simple and it is fast-paced fun with huge jackpots to be won.

    Blackjack Pontoon Gold Special Rules

  • Dealer stands on all 17s.
  • Bet values are between $5 and $200.
  • Players can buy additional cards when 2 to 4 cards are already in the hand.
  • A "Twist" is when the player has a total of 14 or less and has to accept an additional card. Twisting is not mandatory on a value of 15 or more. Not asking for an additional card is a "stick." A "buy" is when the player doubles the bet.
  • The dealer can check for pontoon by peeking at their cards. If the dealer has pontoon, the cards are turned face up and the player's wager is collected.
  • Players can achieve pontoon after splitting aces.
  • A player can re-split once for up to three hands.
