r/Cribbage

Tornado take shelter alert-so my 8 year old grandson and I sat in the bathroom, toilet seat down, crib board on the toilet seat and played cribbage. There were 7 of us in that bathroom! Btw, that 8 year old beat me by 12 points.

Competitive match making. There is no way possible “randomly” that someone over 3500 CR level is THAT much better than me. They absolutely smoke me EVERY game. Thats so fucked up. Nobody is that much better. That app is crazy messed up. Ive played crib with a thousand different people in person in tournaments and everything and it’s never like how that game is. WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON WITH THAT FUCKED UP “random” DEALING. Cribbage pro is trash 🗑️

I was just curious why when you get get dealt your hand say you decide to keep 4 cards of the same suit. Regardless of the cut card, you are guaranteed at least 4 points because of the flush, and you also have a shot at 5 points if the cut card is the same suit. If the cut card is not the same suit, then you still get credit for at least 4 points.

However, in the crib if you get all the same suit but the cut card is not the same suit, why don't you get any points at all when you are guaranteed 4 points in the previous situation? Just seems weird in my opinion that it would be different.

Asking for opinions from cribbage players who are not yet ACC members, but who would consider joining. The membership fee is $30 per year, which provides access to all ACC activities. How many players who typically only play online would join the ACC with a full membership to play in online events? If there was a reduced membership fee of $10, would online players be more likely to join? Information about ACC membership, live tourneys, grass roots clubs, and online play can be found on the ACC website, www.cribbage.org. Looking forward to your responses.

Question, if for example, a 4 is played followed by a 6 then a 5 obviously that's a run of three for the third player, if then another 4 is played is that another run of three for the player that plays the second 4? 4-5-6-4 is that 2 separate runs of 3?

Double skunked my husband in 8 hands. I averaged about 12 points per hand (one 7pt and a couple 17pt) and all 4 of my cribs were over 10 points. Super fun game (for me)!
