Pontoon GamesOS - GamesOs
Pontoon is a classic card game from provider GamesOS that is a blackjack variant popular in the UK and elsewhere. At Pontoon, players compete against a dealer in an attempt to score 21 points using two or more cards without exceeding that number. The game adds some features and changes over traditional blackjack, making it unique and interesting.
The main goal of the game is to score 21 points or the amount closest to it. However, there is no open dealer card in Pontoon, and players must make decisions without knowing which card the dealer has. After players receive two cards, they can choose hit (take the card) or stand (stop). Also available in Pontoon is the double down and split option, which gives players additional options to manage bets and increase their chances of winning.
A feature of Pontoon is that the ace is always rated as 11 points rather than 1, allowing players to reach 21 points faster. The game also has additional rules for winning. For example, Pontoon is the highest combination consisting of two cards: ace and 10 points. If the player receives such a hand, he wins with a payment of 2:1.
If a player receives a combination equal to 21 points, but not with an ace and a ten, he wins with a regular payment equal to 1:1. The dealer must also reach 17 points or more to play his hand, and if the dealer fails, the players win.
The graphics of the game are made in the style of a real casino with bright and clear cards, which helps to create a gambling atmosphere. The soundtrack heightens the tension, adding extra elements of excitement and dynamics to each round.
