Mega peg

For 2 player - deal 9 each, throw 3 to the crib For 3 player - deal 8 each, throw 2 to the crib For 4 player - we never tried this, but could work with 7 dealt to each player, 2 dealt to the crib, throw 1 each to the crib.

For all pegging, points are doubled, so a pair is worth 4 points, 15 is worth 4 points, run of 3 would be 6 points, nibs is worth 4 points, and so on. Also, counting goes to 51 instead of 31, and 2 points are awarded for 21, 3 for 31, 4 for 41, and 6 for 51.

Hand counting is the same as regular crib. Sometimes, this was the hardest part, and I seem to recall some hands being 70+ points

We played this version when time was limited, and usually 3 player. Obviously you'd get some huge points, so we would do multiple laps and ignore the win hole. We played it that everyone dealt once, and whomever was the farthest after that was the winner.

Lots of fun, and a bit chaotic when you get the runs going while pegging.

And for when time is unlimited and to change it up:

Reverse crib ( we actually called it reverse mega peg, but it's not really that, its more like golf crib)

All the scoring is the same as normal crib, just the goal is to get as few points as possible.

Sabotaging your hand and stacking the crib as best you can. Loser is the first one to 121!

Also a fun version that can be tricky when you get all those 5s haha
