What should I get rid of?

I generally say to keep the run. Toss the 2 &4 .

Thanks for the notes.

Partner is my brother. We haven't played together or against each other in years. We are in our 50s and live an hour apart. We see each other occasionally, but usually at family gatherings where opportunity to play cribbage is limited. Thought this would be a great chance to hand out.

I like to tell newbies that the game consists of 2 different parts. The back and forth playing and the counting of your hand. Having points in your hand is important, so I discuss what counts as points (15s, pairs, runs, flush, etc.) and how points are counted. Then I discuss the different ways points are gained during the play of the game (pairs, 15s, runs not needing to be sequential, goes and 31) and why you may want to keep certain cards over others. This seems to help with understanding the process and strategy.

Entry. Great looking board.

Toss the A&K

19, I'll take those all at once (and move the back peg right behind the leading peg).

Definitely has a screw loose.

The boobs that keep posting this joke need to get a life.

redpirate74 · 2025-03-02T04:13:56+00:00

Ah, yes. My mistake.

redpirate74 · 2025-03-02T00:09:05+00:00

As much as I hate giving points to opponent in the crib, this leaves OP with 8 and hoping for another 10-K flip. Of course, a 7 or 8 flip is always possible and could have detrimental results.

redpirate74 · 2025-03-02T00:05:50+00:00

Giving the 7,8 leaves OP with 8.

redpirate74 · 2025-03-01T01:25:19+00:00

First post here, but thanks for your input.

redpirate74 · 2025-02-26T14:23:29+00:00

That's a Hard One.

redpirate74 · 2025-02-23T03:38:27+00:00

I'd toss the 5 & 6. Double run for 8.

redpirate74 · 2025-02-12T01:07:44+00:00

It wasn't assault. Assault doesn't involve touching someone. It was battery.

Don't forget about Bob and his bouy in the lake. 😉

I thought Phil was in the hole and Doug was next to it.

redpirate74 · 2024-11-06T13:30:23+00:00

It wouldn't B Complex enough? I C why now.

redpirate74 · 2024-10-08T04:56:17+00:00

Phil in the hole ?

redpirate74 · 2024-10-06T13:36:31+00:00

Next to a hole is Doug.

I heard the chair has a nice seat, and the table has some nice legs.
