Cribbage Pegging Scoring

  • The classic card game Cribbage also known as Crib, Cribble, and Noddy. A card game traditionally for two players, that involves playing and grouping cards in combinations which gain points.
  • At that point the cumulative sum is reset to zero and the same process is continued until both players have played. During pegging points are awarded.

Points

This article based on the letter of Joe O'Brien, who showed, that dealer can score 30 points (not 29 points as we stated before with Dealer hand 3,3,4,4 ; Pone hand 3,3,4,4 and not 26 points with a dealer's hand 4,4,4,7, pone's hand 4,8,10,K, and the jack as a starter). In Joe's example Dealer hand 7,7,4,4 ; Pone hand 7,7,4,4.
Both can have also 7,7,5,5 or 7,7,6,6 so there are three different versions that allow the same count.

Can You Get A Flush In Cribbage While Pegging

Red - succession of play

Dealer Points 2 for pair, 12 for 6 pairs, 1 for a go, 2 for pair, 12 for 6 pairs, 1 for last
Dealer Totals 2+12+1+2+12+1 = 30
Dealer pegs 30 in this scenario.
The same result can be achieved with the next card sets:
Dealer hand 7,7,5,5
Pone hand 7,7,5,5.
or
Dealer hand 7,7,6,6
Pone hand 7,7,6,6.
