Cribbage.
The
game
of
Cribbage
differs
from
all
other
games
by
its
immense
variety
of
chances.
It
is
played
with
the
full
pack
of
cards,
often
by
four
persons,
but
it
is
a
better
game
for
two.
There
are
also
different
modes
of
playing--with
five,
six,
or
eight
cards;
but
the
best
games
use
those
with
five
or
six
cards.

Terms
Used
in
Cribbage.
i.
Crib.--The
crib
is
composed
of
the
cards
thrown
out
by
each
player,
and
the
dealer
is
entitled
to
score
whatever
points
are
made
by
them.
ii.
Pairs
are
two
similar
cards,
as
two
aces
or
two
kings.
Whether
in
hand
or
play
they
reckon
for
two
points.
iii.
Pairs-Royal
are
three
similar
cards,
and
reckon
for
six
points,
whether
in
hand
or
play.
iv.
Double
Pairs-Royal
are
four
similar
cards
and
reckon
for
twelve
points,
whether
in
hand
or
play.
The
points
gained
by
pairs,
pairs-royal,
and
double
pairs-royal,
in
playing,
are
thus
effected:--Your
adversary
having
played
a
seven
and
you
another,
constitutes
a
pair,
and
entitles
you
to
score
two
points;
your
antagonist
then
playing
a
third
seven,
makes
a
pair-royal,
and
he
marks
six;
and
your
playing
a
fourth
is
a
double
pair-royal,
and
entitles
you
to
twelve
points.
v.
Fifteens.--Every
fifteen
reckons
for
two
points,
whether
in
hand
or
play.
In
hand
they
are
formed
either
by
two
cards--as
a
five
and
any
tenth
card,
a
six
and
a
nine,
a
seven
and
an
eight,
or
by
three
cards,
as
a
two,
a
five,
and
an
eight,
two
sixes
and
a
three.
If
in
play,
such
cards
as
together
make
fifteen
are
played,
the
player
whose
card
completes
that
number,
scores
two
points.
