Crib game instructions


















Scores are awarded for satisfying specific conditions, which will be described in detail in the Scoring section of the guide. Regardless of the number of players, the turn order is determined through deck splitting. The player who reveals the lowest card goes first. Turn order then proceeds in clockwise order. The dealer shuffles the deck and proceeds to deal 6 cards to each player. These 6 cards form the hands of each player. Each player is then required to discard 2 cards, to form the crib.

These discarded cards are placed face down, and will only be used in the Show phase of the game. At this stage, all players will have hands consisting of 4 cards, and the crib also contains 4 cards.

The player to the left of the dealer will then cut the deck, and the dealer reveals the top card. The non-dealer goes first, and places a card from their hand face up in front of her, stating the count.

The count is cumulative, so each successive card played by any player will add to this value. The dealer then plays a 10 in response. The count is then reset to 0. The cut card as mentioned earlier comes into play and can be used to help get you more points in your hand. The crib is to the left of the hand below. We counted that hand in the last step so we had 14 points in that hand.

After that the crib is turned over and counted and as you can see from the next photo we just have a pair for 2 points. Once the counting is finished this process starts all over but with the person to the left or the person that did not deal last time starts dealing the next hand. This process continues until one of the players gets points or more altogether, therefore completing the game.

Question 7 months ago. Does this refer to whoever cut the starter card only? Answer 5 months ago. Question 7 months ago on Step 8. Is a match complete when you get to 7 or 5 or whatever odd number or do you have to peg off the match section? Question 2 years ago. Question 2 years ago on Introduction. While trying to reach 31 can the value say a 5 of the cut card be used to score say 15 for 2, or a 3,4,5 for 3 the 5 being the cut card?

Or is the cut card NOT used while trying to reach 31? I think I can use my opponents card that they they laid while trying to reach 31, say a 5, and then if I lay a 10 take 15 for 2? Or if I lay an 8, the pone lays and 8 they get 2 for a pair, and if I lay another 8 I get 3 point for the 3 8's?

If say laid a card, and a 2 had already been played for 29 and I played another 2 for 31, do I get 2 for a pair, 2 for reaching 31 and 1 for last card, if my last two made 31? Reply 5 years ago. Good wording in most everything. Very few grammatical mistakes which is important in explaining a lot of this stuff. However, some edits need to be made.

Now I'm new to cribbage but, as others have said there are a few things left out. I believe the last player to play a card on "the count" gets a point, this point always goes to the dealer.

Example: A hand including the starter comprised of 8, 7, 7, 6, 2 scores 8 points for four combinations that total the 8 with one 7, and the 8 with the other 7; the 6, 2 with each of the two 7s. The same hand also scores 2 for a pair, and 6 for two runs of three 8, 7, 6 using each of the two 7s. The total score is An experienced player computes the hand thus: "Fifteen 2, fifteen 4, fifteen 6, fifteen 8, and 8 for double run is Note that the ace is always low and cannot form a sequence with a king.

Further, a flush cannot happen during the play of the cards; it occurs only when the hands and the crib are counted. The highest possible score for combinations in a single Cribbage deal is 29, and it may occur only once in a Cribbage fan's lifetime -in fact, experts say that a 29 is probably as rare as a hole-in-one in golf.

To make this amazing score, a player must have a five as the starter upcard and the other three fives plus the jack of the same suit as the starter - His Nobs: 1 point - in their hand. The double pair royal four 5s peg another 12 points; the various fives used to hit 15 can be done four ways for 8 points; and the jack plus a 5 to hit 15 can also be done four ways for 8 points.

Muggins optional. Each player must count his hand and crib aloud and announce the total. If he overlooks any score, the opponent may say "Muggins" and then score the overlooked points for himself.

For experienced players, the Muggins rule is always in effect and adds even more suspense to the game. Game may be fixed at either points or 61 points. The play ends the moment either player reaches the agreed total, whether by pegging or counting one's hand. If the non-dealer "goes out" by the count of his hand, the game immediately ends and the dealer may not score either his hand or the crib. If a player wins the game before the loser has passed the halfway mark did not reach 31 in a game of 61, or 61 in a game of , the loser is "lurched," and the winner scores two games instead of one.

A popular variation of games played to , is a "skunk" double game for the winner if the losing player fails to pass the three-quarter mark - 91 points or more - and it is a "double skunk" quadruple game if the loser fails to pass the halfway mark 61 or more points. The Cribbage board see illustration has four rows of 30 holes each, divided into two pairs of rows by a central panel. There are usually four or two additional holes near one end, called "game holes.

Note: There are also continuous track Cribbage boards available which, as the name implies, have one continuous line of holes for each player. The board is placed to one side between the two players, and each player takes two pegs of the same color. The pegs are placed in the game holes until the game begins. Each time a player scores, they advance a peg along a row on their side of the board, counting one hole per point.

Two pegs are used, and the rearmost peg jumps over the first peg to show the first increment in score. After another increase in score, the peg behind jumps over the peg in front to the appropriate hole to show the player's new score, and so on see diagram next page.

The custom is to "go down" away from the game holes on the outer rows and "come up" on the inner rows. A game of 61 is "once around" and a game of is "twice around. If a Cribbage board is not available, each player may use a piece of paper or cardboard, marked thus:. Two small markers, such as small coins or buttons, can substitute for pegs for counting in each row. Number cards are worth face value or pip value.

The cards running total cannot exceed After the Go, the opponent can play any cards in hand that can be played without making the total exceed They can also score points for pairs and runs, which are described below.

If a player hits 31 exactly, they peg 2. Whoever called Go leads in the next phase of play, the count begins at zero again. You cannot lead the next phase with cards previously used to score combinations.

Whoever plays the last card gets to peg 1 for Go and an extra peg if they land directly on The goal of the game is to collect points through pegging. Players can score points for a Go and the following combinations:. Once play finishes, the three hands are counted in this order: non-dealer, dealer, crib.
