How to Play Cribbage (Crib) - Cribbage, or crib, is a card game traditionally for two players, but commonly played with three, four or more, that involves playing and grouping cards in combinations which gain points. This game is for a single person versus "Jake", your computer opponent.
Cribbage Scoring Combinations - (Crib scores between 0 and 29 are all possible, with the exception of 19, 25, 26 and 27)

- Fifteen: Any combination of cards totaling exactly 15 points, 2 points
- Pair: Two cards of the same rank, 2 points
- Triplet: Three cards of the same rank, 6 points
- Quartet: Four cards of the same rank, 12 points
- Sequence: Three or more cards in a row, any suit (aces always low), 1 point per card
- Flush: Four cards of the same suit (not counting the crib or including the starter), 4 points; five cards in hand or crib with starter, 5 points

- Standard cribbage game. Skunks are worth +100 and double skunks are worth +200 added to your final score.
Once the play is complete, each player in turn receives points based on the content of his hand in conjunction with the starter card. Points are scored for combinations of cards totalling fifteen, runs, pairs, flushes and having a Jack of the same suit as the starter card ("one for his nob or nobs or nibs"). The dealer scores his hand last and then turns the cards in the crib face up. These cards are then scored by the dealer as an additional hand in conjunction with the starter card.
