This is by far the best video on this game. So many try to explain it by just stating the rules. This is the type of game with so much going on with scoring you have to see it in action for it to really "click".

I fully agree! This teaches the game amazingly well

Always easier for me to learn while watching an actual game, thank you

Excellent job with the video. Your voice is easy to listen to. And I like the way you stop and give us time to calculate the score before telling us. You are a natural teacher. Thank you. I'm just learning for the first time and your video explains the game very well.

We had a cribbage match at our local fire station last year. It was a boiled chicken dinner and Cribbage match, and all the beer you can drink for $12.95. One of our local drunk got wasted, tried to flush a whole chicken down the toilet. Man what a mess. We had toilet overflowage running out of the street even. The mayor said if we have another one of these cribbage matches there will be no booze. He was so mad I don't even think we'll have another one

This was so useful and so well explained! Thanks a lot for the video, I can't wait to try to play this game with my mum hoping I won't confuse her (and me) too much!

Do you always keep the cards spread out as you play the hand out so that you can see the previous cards played? Or are you just doing that so that people viewing the video can see the previous cards that were played? (In other words: if you were just playing a regular game without recording it to teach people, would you lay your own cards directly on top of the previous cards that you played?)

We always turn cards face down after a GO. And then start the next plays. Is there a rule about turning played cards face down after a GO.

@jonpinyan 7 ай бұрын

In most casual play, the cards get turned face down. In American Cribbage Congress official play, the cards remain up for the rest of the hand, which helps in case there are disputes about a misplay, and avoids accidentally mixing the hand and crib.

I didn't get the 24 points at the end? I only came up with 14, so I'm missing something. 🤷🏼‍♀️ I used to play 40 some years ago, but the house fire destroyed my board and it's hard to find players! ❤

The hand my father had was A788+7, which scored 14. After that, I made an example hand of 7889+7, which would score 24 points (4 runs of 3, 4 fifteens, and 2 pairs). Depending on where you live, there may be a local cribbage club near you. If you're in the USA, look at cribbage.org to see the list of grass roots clubs of the American Cribbage Congress.

How do I score my 4 queens?

@jonpinyan 5 ай бұрын

There's six ways to make a pair: Spade-Heart, Spade-Club, Spade-Diamond, Heart-Club, Heart-Diamond, and Diamond-Club. Each of those is worth two points, so four-of-a-kind is worth 12 points.

Hey can you help me count this hand 4 4566

@jonpinyan 5 күн бұрын

Sure. We check for fifteens. 6+5+4 = 15, and there are four ways to do that (pair each 6 with each 4). No other set of cards adds up to 15, so that's 4x2 = 8 points. Next, we check for runs. Each 4-5-6 is a three-card run, and again there are four of them. 4x3 = 12 points. Next, we check for pairs. Obviously, there's a pair of 4s and a pair of 6s. 2x2 = 4 points. With two 6s in the hand, we can't have a flush, and we obviously don't have the "right jack", so those don't apply. Adding it all up, 8+12+4 = 24 points. 44556, 44566, and 45566 are three of the most common ways to get a 24 hand.
