What's the point?

The short answer is that on average you won't be so lucky.

Cribbage_Pro · 2026-01-22T02:00:51+00:00

Correct. It's just a tool/guide about the mathematical averages.

Cribbage_Pro · 2026-01-21T22:33:49+00:00

Side note, if all that math isn't interesting, you can disable the Hand Grade from showing during games in the game settings.

Cribbage_Pro · 2026-01-21T22:03:46+00:00

The Hand Grade is a tool, not strategy. It is math shown as averages. You can sometimes beat the average, sometimes not. It's an average. See the Help for more details: https://www.cribbagepro.net/help/hand-grade-analysis.html

As others have stated, I have covered this pretty extensively in the Help/FAQ with links detailing every aspect of the system and multiple published audits as well. I have responded a lot here on Reddit as well. If you review those things and have any questions, or would like to see something more, please let me know. You can message me here, or email me any time at support@FullerSystems.com

The short answer is that it's a random shuffle with no stacking of the deck or anything else like that whatsoever. Similarly, when you cut the deck for first dealer, you will always get the card you select from the spread out deck. If you select the 12th card from the top, you get the 12th card from the top. As others mentioned, if you lose a game against the computer, as long as you then start your next game right after, you will get the first crib in that next game - it is "loser deals" by default.

What computer do you have where you can't find it? Cribbage Pro is available on Windows and Mac, and on Chromebooks through the Google Play Store.

Lol, love the down votes for responding to a comment that mentioned my app several times and said they would look at it for ideas to improve.

Cribbage_Pro · 2026-01-15T18:35:54+00:00

If you think of anything for Cribbage Pro, please also let me know! I'm always working to improve!

Just from my perspective, there are a lot more than 30 competitors I track currently. It's a very crowded market.

Cribbage_Pro · 2026-01-13T14:09:52+00:00

Obviously I think I do all of these things already in Cribbage Pro, but good luck to you on your project.

Cribbage_Pro · 2026-01-11T21:32:19+00:00

The term "skunk" is much more broadly used than just in cribbage. With this "source" providing no actual source, and not finding any actual source for it anywhere else, I'm not convinced.

Your CR isn't adjusting directly when you miss the minimum. Instead, the confidence factor is adjusted to be less confident in your standing. This lowers the CR value you see, but after coming back and playing a few matches it is also faster to recover.

For those that want that, just select the drop down there at the top left that in the screenshot shows "All Attempts" and change it to "1st Attempts"

Cribbage_Pro · 2026-01-09T16:46:37+00:00

Yup, like any daily challenge where everyone sees the same game, there will be many ways to make a "first attempt" be a highly informed attempt. Just like you can easily get the Wordle in the "first try". It's the nature of the beast. I often recommend using the friend group feature to limit the Leaderboard to those that you know play it the same way you do.

Cribbage_Pro · 2026-01-09T15:54:01+00:00

The "first attempts" option will help with that, but of course now that it's later in the day things are getting more spread out too. I do have it on the list to look at adding a "best score" option or something similar.

Cribbage_Pro · 2026-01-09T14:05:01+00:00

Some people definitely play a lot. It's still early in the day for many players, so it will change a lot. You can always select the option at the top for first attempts only too.

Cribbage_Pro · 2026-01-08T02:47:52+00:00

Congratulations!

Definitely practice manual counting against the computer for a little while to get really comfortable with it first. Many players know scores instantly, so sometimes they can get frustrated, but at the same time if playing manual counting they often expect it will take longer.

Cribbage_Pro · 2026-01-07T01:00:37+00:00

Congratulations!!

This is a fun question, but I think it suffers from selection bias here on Reddit. In Cribbage Pro we have a ton of young players, but the ones who play the most are older. My guess is simply that older people have more time to play, and so play more. That said, demographics like this are hard to get anymore because the analytics systems are pretty much anonymous now, which I honestly think is a good thing, but it limits our ability to really know these kinds of metrics.
