I guess there is no way to get a hand history of pontoon at this site? I deposited and received my bonus, and am getting totally blown away by dealer pontoons. Its got to be a 2-1 ratio or higher on dealer vs player pontoons, plus alot of other ridiculousness.

I realize it can just be variance, but its frustrating without some sort of log, down $70 after $1132 WR using Wizard of Odds strategy card!

Do you mean you're down to $130 or $30? If down to $130, it's not too shocking. Your SD thus far, if you bet $2/hand, is $68.51. So you're about 1 SD below EV, which will happen about 1 time in 6.

FYI, I cashed out about $50 above EV, in other words a $150 profit (not that this proves anything one way or another -- but maybe it will reassure you a bit).

finished WR and cashed out $53....[censored] that place. I'd say that 40-50% of my 20s lost and I got dealt 15 so much my eyes wanted to bleed [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
Ah well, I know its the variance, but still for once I'd like to hit a 100% match bonus with a +variance for myself. Every casino bj that I whore, I'm always short of the estimated EV...so frustrating!

After you enter the coupon code and make a deposit, a little box will appear in the top-left corner of the cashier screen in which "$3000" is written.

Is it just me, or is Pontoon the coolest game ever?

[Izverg04]

It is without question the coolest casino game.

Hey Homer, I'm having some severe troubles with this software (or its some rule that I am unaware of). Whenever I double either 9 or 10 it always gives me 2 cards. So if I have 11 and double I'll get an 8 and a 6 and bust. Please tell me this is not normal. At first I thought I was being paranoid/double clicking or something, but it's happened many times now (probably 5-10 times). It's actually worked more in my favor than against it, but something does not seem right. Any suggestions?

[Thythe]

Besides for that, yes, Pontoon is definitely the coolest casino game ever.

EDIT: It seems like it's somewhat rigged at this casino, though, but someone forgot to tell the house to rig it against the player, not for him.

Very cool indeed. I just split my aces, then resplit aces and received a ten on each one. Each paying 2-1. Much better than blackjack rules.

Thythe, the double hit that you are receiving is because of the rules of the game.

If you have a 10 for example and double and get a 3, you only have 13. Since player is forced to hit below 14, it goes ahead and deals you the next card since you have no option but to hit.

It bothered me too at first, until I understood what it was doing. What annoys me is that it doesn't automatically hold your pontoon when you are dealt AX (x=10,j,q,k). I can't see much reason to do anything other then stand on a dealt pontoon!
