Play a Game of Cribbage Against 'Jake'
NOTE: This previous Flash version of Cribbage will be replaced shortly.
Jake is an excellent Crib player, though the scoundrel has been known to cheat due to some programming errors beyond our control - as we are not the original programmers of the game. We have had players tell us the game is too hard and should be replaced. On the other hand, we have players contact us saying the game is 'perfect' as it is, and 'leave it alone', and 'it's a great game for teaching the rules and play of Cribbage'.

How to Play Cribbage (Crib)
| Scoring Rules for Cribbage | ||
|---|---|---|
The game of Cribbage can end at either 121 points or 61 points. The play ends the moment one player reaches the agreed total, whether by pegging or counting his/her hand. If a non-dealer 'goes out' by the count of his/her hand, the game immediately ends and the dealer may not score either his/her hand or the crib. When play ends, the hands are counted in this order: non-dealer's hand(s) (1st), dealer's hand (2nd), and then the crib (3rd). Cribbage Scoring Combinations: Crib scores between 0 and 29 are all possible - with the exception of 19, 25, 26 and 27. | ||

Rules
- Object of the game: Make as many points as possible.
Setup
- The rules of this solitaire are based on the old Cribbage game.
- Take a deck of 52 cards and deal six cards in a row, face up. This is the 'hand'.
- Two more cards are dealt from the stock, face down, above the 'hand'. This is the 'crib'.
Game Procedure
- Look at the cards in your 'hand' and select two of them to be played to the 'crib'.
- Deal the next card from the stock face up. This is the 'starter' and will allow you to know how many points you have scored in this deal.
- Take the cards and place them on a waste pile.
- Deal six more cards to the 'hand' and two to the 'crib'. Deal the 'starter' and add the points to your score.
- Continue until there are only four cards left in the stock. These cards will be played as a 'hand' and will be scored without a 'starter'.
- You will have won a Cribbage hand if your score is at least 81.
