Cribbage rules and scoring
Deal: two players receive six cards and discard two each. Three players receive five cards, discard one each, and the dealer receives one extra face-down card in the crib. Everyone plays with four cards.
Pegging: take turns playing cards without exceeding 31. Fifteen = 2, thirty-one = 2; pairs = 2, three of a kind = 6, four of a kind = 12; runs of 3+ score their length; last card or Go = 1 (except when reaching 31). Anyone unable to play says “Go.”
Show: count fifteens, pairs, longest runs, flushes and his nobs (a Jack matching the starter suit). Starter Jack awards the dealer two points (“his heels”). A regular hand scores a four-card flush, plus one if starter matches; a crib flush requires all five cards in the same suit. The nondealers score first; the dealer scores their hand and crib last. First to 121 wins immediately.
