This video should be the ONLY Cribbage video on CZcams. The best by far.
This is by far the best explanation of cribbage on you tube. The video is without any annoying background music, the narrator has a pleasant voice and articulates extremely well. The game is explained step by step and is easy to follow. The use of transitions and highlights in the editing is very professional. I could not have wished for a better tutorial. Thank you very much for making this 5 star video.
i miss youtube’s star rating system
The way they present the playing of the cards is confusing. In a game the cards are NOT placed on each other, but kept by the players so they can easily gather them for their own hand scoring. Other than this confusion for non players, I agree it's fairly straight forward
Why does this video only have around 16k views? This is the best explanation of cribbage I have seen thus far!!!!
This is the best beginners instruction. This is very clear and gives all the basics. I liked the cards light up to show you combinations for points. Thanks
One rule that was not mentioned is the idea of "muggins" where if one player misses points in their hand or crib, the other gets those missed points. For example, the narrator said that 4 4 5 6 7 was worth only 10 points and several people commented that combination of cards was actually worth 16 points. So anyone playing against the narrator would score an extra 6 points, potentially winning the game. Muggns is usually played between advanced players so that beginners don't become frustrated by missing points in obscure card combinations.
This was the best video I found - by FAR - when trying to learn cribbage. Lots of well intended not great teachers out there, the good ones are really appreciated.
I agree with what others are saying - this is BY FAR the most thorough and easy-to-follow explanation of cribbage on CZcams. Thank you so much! Even as an intermediate player myself, I learned some new things watching this. I do wish it went into more detail about the finer points of scoring multiple rounds and skunks, but otherwise this is fantastic.
This is a wonderful cribbage tutorial. The instructions are simple, the narration is clear, the photography well done. I agree with others...this is the best instructional video for cribbage.
best explanation of cribbage on you tube. I was going to give up reading the instructions that came with the board
This video really covers some of the intricacies of scoring in great detail.
Agreed with the comments below -- this is the best video on the topic and touches a number of points that other videos don't. Should show as the number one search result. Great job!
Wow!!! I never played cribbage and no other video I saw explained how to play like you did!! I was about to give up trying because it seemed too complicated...But you explained it so well I will give this game a try! Thank you!
This was a great explanation of cribbage, thank you so much!
Best tutorial we found!
Thanks for this video! Every other explanation of cribbage I could find was really badly written.
Excellent fast instruction of play and show.
Great! I feel confident enough to attempt my first game ;-)
at 15:45 you mistakingly forgot to add the 15's to your score by just adding the points from the two runs of 4 with the double.
i see 15-2, 15-4, 15-6 from the card combinations as followed 4,4,7 ~ 6,4,5 and 6,4,5(alterate the 4).
then double 4's brings the total points to 8
lastly the two runs of four (once again by alternating the 4's) will bring the grand total to 16pts to peg. (:
I've never played cribbage scoring with pen and paper. Seems like such a method of scorekeeping would take much of the fun out of the game.
This is the first and only video I've seen to address the issue of having cards you can still play while on the "Go". We had a big debate why you would continue playing cards once you scored the "Go" if you knew you couldn't reach 31. (ex: the count/points are at 27, you have a 2. why would you bother making it 29 when you could 'save' your 2 for the next play, knowing you can't hit 31.) Seems dumb to just throw away extra cards, but maybe that's just the luck of the draw. Hearing "you MUST play cards if able to" definitely helps set a base ruling. Great video, thank you for the clear concise guide, very well done!
We've also been confused by this. If you only get the 'Go' point once - there seems little advantage in keeping going closer to 31 (unless you can make 31 exactly for the extra point). Your opponent may then have 2 or even 3 cards left and will definitely get the 'last card played' point - cancelling out your one 'Go' point.
At 18:43, unless I'm mistaken, it looks like there are an additional 3 combinations of 15, the two 4's and the 7, the 4,5, and 6 and the other 4,5 and 6 bringing the total to 16
Well done.
Excellent explanation

I think I finally got it!
FR this is the best cribbage tutorial all others are trash.
Very good explanation. I'm completely new to Cribbage and I was completely confused with the instructions that came with the set and other videos I've seen. With your video I now understand the basics. I wanted to know two things: 1) after the first round, do you shuffle the whole deck again, or do you use the remaining cards? 2) do you have a strategy video explaining what's the best way to win at this? I assume there's some level of strategy on which cards go to the cribbage (which cards to discard) and then in what order to place them. Thanks again!
1) The entire deck of 52 cards is reshuffled for each round.
2) There are strategy videos on CZcams, but the basics depend on whether you have the deal or not and what could potentially add to your score with the cut card. For example, if you have 7 7 8 8 9 9 irrespective of suit, if you are the dealer you might discard the two 9s to guarantee yourself at least 2 points in the crib because you're guaranteed 12 in the hand before the cut. If you're not the dealer, discarding a 7 and 9 would be better because you still have 12 in your hand, and you make it more difficult for the dealer to score from those, especially given the chances of cutting an 8 because you already have 2 of them. If a combination of cards gives you the same score no matter which ones you keep, you are better off keeping the lower value cards to increase your chances of scoring a Go or even 31. During play, you might consider leading with a 7 or 8 because if your opponent counters with the card that makes 15, you have a chance for a run of 3 if you have a 6 or 9. The danger in that is they might play the card on the other side of that run for a run of 4, but that's a chance you take just to get yourself at least 3 points. Never lead with a 5 unless you have no choice because of the number of cards having a 10 value, but possibly lead with a value of 4 or less if you have the card that will make 15 if they counter with a 10 value card. There are many strategies that you will learn with practice.
Anyone on Facebook can also play cribbage against 4 levels of computer, your friends, or a random person. The offering from JD Software is the best one I think in that it auto scores during gameplay but it offers an explanation screen to show how the hand or crib is scored. It also has a statistics page that shows win/loss record and more. If anyone wants to play, send me a friend request and I'll be happy to kick your butt. :) Seriously, I've been playing the game a long time and I could tell you the score of any of the 2,598,960 different 5-card combinations, but I'm only as good as the cards I'm dealt and I've been skunked many times!
Question - are pairs scored in pegging play based on JUST your own cards? Example: Player1 plays a 7. Player2 plays a 4. Player1 plays another 7...is this a pair of 7s for P1 or not because of P2s 4?
I know the count up to 31 is added between players, but how does the run/pair work in this way? Are they based on the other players cards as well? How do you lay them on the table? Connected to one another or P1 has a separate 'row' in front of them while P2 has their 'row' of cards in front of them?
Thanks for the help!
Do the rules require a player to lay their hands out, face up for counting points?
I'm still a little bit confused. At around 8:45 in the video, player 1 has 3 cards left, player 2 has none. Player 1 plays his ten, player 2 says go, player pegs 1 for the "go", then continues the rest of his cards. Does player 1 also get 1 point for playing the last card?
I'm taking the 4 points you missed on the 44567. ;)
Best explanation I have seen. Just a couple of questions. At around 8.45, you explain that if player 2 has run out of cards, player 1 would be the only one playing, player 2 would say "go" because he has no cards, and player 1 gets 1 point for the "go", but would player 1 also get a point for playing thee "last" card in the sequence, in this case a 9 of hearts, also, does player 1 score a pair for playing the two 10s consecutively? You also state the the winner is the first player to reach 121, but it could be 121 or more, you do not "BUST" by going over121.
I think the "go" point is the point for playing last card in the sequence.
@@ElGeecho Yes of course, thanks for that.
A Go is ALWAYS scored for the last card in a sequence that totals 31 or less. You don't have to get exactly 121. You could be sitting in the "stink hole" (120) and have a combination of cards that scores 24, but still lose the game because you were the dealer and your opponent has 16 in their hand while sitting at 105 or greater!
So what is the corner and skunk? I just remember this from my father and grandfather playing.
If I'm interpreting your question correctly, a skunk is at 90, usually indicated by an "S" where the value of 90 would be.
How do you know which cards were yours when counting the hand phase?
Shocked no one answered this after 9 months! I want to know as well.
Karlie Wilkie generally the cards you play go in front of you in your own pile not together with other players cards
Hold on at 15:47 it says 10 points but I think they forgot to count 7 + 4 + 4 =15 and the 4 + 5 + 6 twice given the score an addtional 6 points for a total of 16 points. Am I right?
Chris Arntzen yes you would only count the longest run but my point is 4, 5 and 6 add up to make 15 which would add another 2 points.
4 4 5 6 7 will give a total of 16 points:
2 runs of 4 cards = 8p
1 pair = 2p
3 times 15 = 6p
U are so right
Any help?
1) Can you claim runs or pairs during the playing phase even if they are split by a go and a reset in counting?
2) If you can make 31 in your hand at the end phase, why do you not get a point for that?

In answer to your first question, I don’t believe you’re supposed to, no. This is and excerpt from the instructions from Bicycle brand playing cards.
“The player who called Go leads for the next series of plays, with the count starting at zero. The lead may not be combined with any cards previously played to form a scoring combination; the Go has interrupted the sequence.”
www.bicyclecards.com/how-to-play/cribbage/
1) No. After a Go or 31, play starts again at 0 and all previous cards are out of play and have no scoring impact on cards played after the Go or 31.
2) There is always 1 point for a Go of any type plus a bonus point for 31, even if it's the last card shown during the playing stage.
At 8:30 and the first go from player 2, could player 1 get multiple "go points" each time player 2 cannot play a card? Even if player 1 has 3 cards and player 2 has none?
Basically no. Once the player says go, the other player must play all cards they can before reaching 31, so they only get the one go. But I guess if the player reaches 31 and still has cards they could achieve a second point for go.
The last person that says go scores a point. If player A says go and players B and C can still continue play then player A does not score a go point. If player A says go player B continues playing until B runs out of cards. There aren't any further goes.
Is it right that you get 1 point for Go EVERY time the opponent cannot play a card? I thought you could have 1p only once, that is only when nobody can play a card. Am I right?
At about 8:30
The go is probably the most misunderstood facet of this game. The last person to say go scores a point. Then play starts again from zero.
Here's a question for all the cribbage players out there: The highest score in a hand or crib is 29, having 3 fives and a Jack in the hand with the Jack being the same suit as the cut card, also a 5. But was scores are IMPOSSIBLE to get in a 5-card combination? Hint: there are 4 numbers from 0 to 29 that answer this question!
3:54 31 is the highest number you have to reach
We play where the 'cut" in the beginning is optional. Is this normal?
No. The cut card determines who gets the first deal and thus the crib. In successive games between the same players, it is common practice for the loser of the previous game to have the first deal in the next game to give them the chance to even the score, for example, in a best-of-three match.
@@dvongrad We cut the card in the beginning for lowest to determine the deal and first crib, but I meant cutting the cards before that person dealt, the winner of the deal offers the other player to cut the cards before dealing. Just a courtesy(?) We just alternated the deal after that during that one game. I have never played an official tournament. I think we did cut the cards anew when we played a new game though.
@@knucklehead4233 Now I understand. That is a good courtesy to assure the opposing player that the cards haven't been shuffled in such a way to give the dealer an advantage. Personally, if I win the deal on the first cut, I'll just do a few quick shuffles in the hands to mix up the cards even more so that neither player can "estimate" where a cut card was that might give him/her an advantage after they see their cards. I hope that makes sense.
Does this mean you can claim the 1 point for a go 3 times in the first hand?
Once a player runs out of cards the other player(s) continues playing. There is no further 1 point go. This video is confusing on this point.
@@dtecum This is what we've been stuck on. If you can keep going closer to 31 do you only get 1 'Go' point, or do you get one each time you play a card closer to 31 and your opponent can't still go (potentially up to 3 'Go' points)? If you only get the one 'Go' point, there seems little advantage in being able to keep going unless you can make 31 and get the extra point, as your opponent will definitely get the 'last card played' point as they might have 2 or even 3 cards left to play. Cheers.
Thanks for this video.
I gonna get my cribbage board back that I have thrown in the trash after I watched other's cribbage instruction videos.
How to Play Tien Gow
please let me know why using two peg. just one peg reach the end point, win the game. if A player get 2 point and 3point then the foremost peg is in 5point. one or two result is same. why use two peg??
I'm still wondering
Two pegs are used to keep record of the previous score as you move around the board. It helps you to add your points accurately and allows opponents to validate each other’s score keeping.
@@shakadougcorbin8939 thank you very much!!
The hand at 15:45 is not worth 10 points, it is actually worth 16. You missed the three 15s. Muggins!
That is funny. I counted it as 14 and had to go back and see why it was 16. Well played.
Ugh how did we gather the cards for phase 2? I feel this was poorly explained.
@Demis Roussos I did but it was poorly explained. Don't be a dick!
Yep - the vid shows cards from both players being laid on top of each other. I feel this was just so you could see the order of cards played. In reality, in the first phase you play your cards in front of you and your opponent does the same so that the players' card piles are kept separate. Your own 4 cards are then easily gathered up again ready for phase 2.
no entendi ni verga no hablo ingles :V
too much explaining.
