If that is the case, then why offer Pontoon at all. Why not simply eliminate Pontoon from the casino since no recreational players play the game? I expect that a larger portion of Pontoon players are so called "bonus abusers" than traditional blackjack players. This will be the case with any uncommon game with a low house edge. However, I expect that there are also plenty of recreational players who choose the game. This is especially true for UK players.

Regarding the difference between Pontoon and blackjack... Pontoon is not blackjack (The Wikipedia article mentioned in this thread used to say Pontoon is blackjack... http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?...ldid=119805603 ). Pontoon is a ariation of blackjack. In my opinion, whether Pontoon should be allowed or not depends on the specific wording of the T&C.

-If a T&C lists all specific ariations of blackjack like the big list Tila Casino used to have, then Pontoon should be allowed unless it is specifically mentioned in the list.

-If a T&C says "all ariations of blackjack" or equivalent, then Pontoon should not be allowed.

-If a T&C says "blackjack" without any comment such as all ariations or all ersions, then Pontoon should be allowed.
