Cribbage is a simple two person card game.
The game involves scoring points by playing and grouping cards into pairs, runs, and combinations of cards that sum to fifteen.

The winner of a game is the first person to score 121 points.
We keep track of the score using pegs. Your peg is blue and the computer is red.

Each time you score points, your back peg will move ahead of your front peg. There are 120 peg holes for each player so the first to get to the end of the path wins.

Cribbage is played in rounds and each round consists of four stages:
- Discarding into the crib
- Pegging
- Counting points in hand
- Counting points in the crib
Page 4 of 7
Discarding
At the beginning of the round, each player is dealt six cards and must choose two cards to discard into the crib.
To discard, click on two cards or drag them to the center of the board. Then click on the button that appears to confirm your discards. The crib cards are then put aside to be counted later
Strategy: Keep in your hand cards that are pairs, runs, and groups that sum to 15. All face cards are worth 10 and aces are worth 1.

Pegging
Starting with whomever is not the dealer, each player lays one card face up in the center of the board. The cumulative sum of the cards is tracked and play continues until neither player can play without putting the sum over 31. At that point the cumulative
sum is reset to zero and the same process is continued until both players have played all four of their cards.
During pegging points are awarded for:
| Cumulative sum of 15 | 2 points |
| Cumulative sum of 31 | 2 points |
| Last card below 31 | 1 point |
| Run of N Cards | N points |
| Pair | 2 points |
| 3 of a kind | 6 points |
| 4 of a kind | 12 points |
To get credit for a run the most recent played cards do not need to be played in order. For example, if the last cards played were 2, 4, 3 then the person who played the 3 would get 3 points for a run.

Counting Hands
Starting with whoever is not the dealer, each player counts the points that can be made using the cards in their hand and the one shared card that was flipped over on the top of the deck.
When counting, points are awarded for:
| Set of cards sum to 15 | 2 points |
| Run of N Cards | N points |
| Pair | 2 points |
| 3 of a kind | 6 points |
| 4 of a kind | 12 points |
| Flush (not including top card) | 4 points |
| Flush (including top card) | 5 points |
| Jack of top suit (Nobs) | 1 point |
By default, the game will count your hand for you. However, you can change the settings to count manually. Counting is done by clicking on each subset of cards that form points and then clicking on the submit button that appears. Once all points have
been counted tap the 'Finished Counting' button to move on. If 'Muggins' is enabled, the computer player will get credit for any points that you miss.

Counting the Crib
After both players have counted the points in their hand, the dealer is given the crib cards (which were discarded at the start of the round.) The points in the crib are counted using the same rules as for counting cards in hand.*
When counting, points are awarded for:
| Set of cards sum to 15 | 2 points |
| Run of N Cards | N points |
| Pair | 2 points |
| 3 of a kind | 6 points |
| 4 of a kind | 12 points |
| Flush (including top card) | 5 points |
| Jack of top suit (Nobs) | 1 point |
*The only difference between hand scoring and crib scoring is that in order to get a flush in the crib, the top card on the deck must also match the suit of the flush.
