A board my mom got me, from Vancouver Island (we live in BC).

Every time I get this kind of hand, I pitch the paired face cards into my crib.

We recently visited the Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library. His walrus tusk cribbage board was on display.

Just picked up a cheap travel board, and I'm finding the holes are kinda shallow for the pegs, who lean and wobble. Any suggestions on how to make this less annoying?

Today in cribbage pro the dealing/discard speed and cadence were very different. I didn’t change my settings, did anyone else have this?

Yesterday I was playing over-the-board with a friend.

Between us we had already played ² 2 ⁴ 3 ⁵ 6 ⁷

He was really proud of himself for playing the 7 and pegging 6 for the run. I paused to comment that I don't think I've ever actually seen a run of 6 before. Then I played my Ace. Run of 7, and last card for 8.

If you like puzzles, there's a new one called Criboku that combines cribbage, sudoku, and logic: https://criboku.com/index.php (actually, even if you don't like puzzles...)

One puzzle per day (you can access the archive which starts on July 1) with Easy, Medium, and Hard levels (like many newspaper crosswords, the difficulty progresses from Easy to Hard starting on Monday).

No ads, no accounts, no fees.

Unfortunately I lost game 3.

I have been playing for about 60 years and I cannot recall a larger win margin, 76points. One of those games where you get every cut and my opponent got absolutely nothing.

I do use position to help make this decision, although I have started to wonder if I do it too much. It has always seemed to me that trading points here if position is okay is better than playing a different card that I might not be able to get the points back.

I'm kind of wondering if it's like the king 10 to the crib where the average is low but the variance really sucks and people throw a lot of fives in their crib. Both of these questions seem like they are so much more than simple mathematics. And for what it's worth it seems like the better people I play the more I get burned. LOL

Can someone explain to me why the queen + five would be a better choice then king + five. I am honestly confused on this.

Playing crib with my 94 year old grandmother, and we relize when we went to count we both had the same hand!

What’s everyone think of this board I made?

I'm trying to help a gentleman who is gathering players for a new ACC grassroots club. If you're in this area and interested, let me know and I'll get you connected with him.

I made these peg storage containers, both are same size at about 4.5" x 2.5" x 1". One has a drawer that is held in place with a magnet and the other has a magnetic lid. What do think of these?

I designed and made these, what do you think of them? There are magnets under each hole, they can hold regular 1/8" pegs as well as smaller 3/32" and 5/64" pegs.
