Can you stick on 15 in Pontoon?

The best possible hand is a two-card 21, or pontoon: an ace plus a royal card or 10. Stick: Ask for no more cards, because you are happy with the total (although you cannot stick on less than 15). Twist: Ask the banker to turn over the next card face up. You can do this up to three times, or until you are bust.

Does pontoon beat a five card trick?

Each player’s basic aim is to form a hand whose total value is as near as possible to 21, without going above 21. Next best after a Pontoon is a Five Card Trick, which is a hand of five cards totaling 21 or less. A hand of three or four cards worth 21 points beats everything else except a Pontoon or Five Card Trick.
