Book excerpt: Master Cribbage and Impress Your Friends! Inside How to Play Cribbage, you’ll discover everything you need to know to have fun with this fascinating game: Basic beginner strategies for quick success and more wins Tactics for making smart choices on the discard How to take the lead – and reply to your opponent’s lead Tips for playing cribbage with 3 to 6 players Originally invented in the 1600s, cribbage became very popular with sailors (especially in the mid-1900s). During World War II, American submarine crews on long voyages became avid cribbage players. Admiral Richard O’Kane was once dealt a perfect hand in a cribbage game – and his lucky cribbage board has been passed down by generations of submarine captains. You can embrace the modern tradition of cribbage by learning the simple and compelling rules of the game. All you need to play is a friend (or a group of friends), a deck of cards, and a cribbage board (a board with 121 holes and pegs for each player). With this easy-to-understand guidebook, you can quickly pick up the basics of the game, including pegging, counting, and “quick counting.” You’ll learn about the “perfect 29,” how to win with 121 points, and how to “skunk” your opponents. You’ll find out how to use the “crib” (the namesake of the game) to your advantage – both as the dealer and a non-dealer. This book even offers sneaky tactics for experienced players, such as using “muggins” to keep your opponents honest and earn more points! When you read How to Play Cribbage, you’ll discover a special bonus chapter which describes Captain's Cribbage, a variant of 3-person cribbage. In three successive rounds, players take turns teaming up together and acting alone as the “captain.” This blend of teamwork and competition creates a fun and challenging twist on this classic game! Don’t wait another minute to start learning this exciting and social game – get your copy of How to Play Cribbage right away!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's a race around a board that takes luck and skill--and if you're hoping to reach the "finish line" first, here are the rules, the skill-building quizzes, and the cleverest tactics needed to win. If you've never played before, you'll get an explanation of the game's basics and scoring--who goes first, dealing and discarding the cards, and moving the pegs, all with expert tips to put beginners on the right track from the start. The detailed coverage focuses on such topics as what to do when the cut is irrelevant (when the dealer will lose if he doesn't peg out); strategies in the play of the hand; ways to speed up the game; and almost any potential situation you'll encounter. And, for those who already play, there's some advanced advice to take you to the next level, plus information on the American Cribbage Congress, which runs tournaments and clubs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A review from The Philidorian: As long as sea-coal fires and Welsh-rabbits maintain their ground in merry England, so long will the venerable science of Cribbage hold its own. To the spectacled dowager, or the gouty old bachelor,--to miss near her teens, or master near his pinafore. --How could there be devised a better game? It teaches the child arithmetic, by a railroad process; and soothes the aches of age by its gentle exercise of the brain. Pasquin's Treatise, long out of print, was the best cribbage manual ever published; and in the little volume before us Mr. Walker has appended a good deal of interesting matter to a reproduction of the original. We may take another opportunity to draw upon this work for extracts. At p. 41, we turned up an error, which the publishers will thank us for pointing out, in order to its being corrected in a second edition. The author's words are, "A sequence of a six, seven, and eight, combined with a pair of aces, inclusive of a four card flush, yield thirteen points," &c. Now the fact is, these cards with the flush, as indicated, count for seventeen, although at first view we grant the computation is not obvious. A six, seven, and eight, with a pair of aces, unflushed, form of themselves the baker's dozen; and this particular presentment of the cards is called, in some counties, the "ragged thirteen." From the beginning of the Author's PREFACE: As a game of cards for two persons only, Cribbage is universally popular, and both Piquet and Ecarté must give place to its pretensions. There exists, indeed, no similar species of amusement, in which the rival powers of chance and skill are so happily blended; -- and, while the influence of fortune is perpetually recognized as a source of pleasing excitement, there remains sufficient room for the exercise of the intellectual faculties, to insure their final attainment of success. In Cribbage, as in other games, the ignorant go on, playing at random, and trusting solely to what they term "their luck;" -- while those who are better informed, do not disdain to acquire the art of guiding that "luck" towards their own side of the board. During the run of a few consecutive games, skill may be compelled to yield to the power of adverse cards; but in a longer series of play, its influence will most certainly predominate.

The Pair-royal must be held in hand, at every risk, in all the cases here quoted. It must not be supposed that I think it necessary the learner should study All these cases of discarding, repeatedly and incessantly. He is merely required to use them for occasional reference; examining three or four at a time; and not endeavouring so much to follow them out literally, or learn them by rote--as to catch the spirit in which the various decisions are conceived, and then to aim at adapting such spirit to the varied and endless combinations of the cards he may take up. Not only may the same hands constantly arise to a card, but analogous positions will also frequently present themselves, in which the examples here given will serve as land-marks whereby to direct your course, in steering for port. Doubtless, there will be many persons inclined to dissent from some parts of the doctrine of scientific...

Book excerpt: "This book is to cribbage players what scrabble and crossword dictionaries are to word puzzlers - essential." Winning at the game of cribbage - is it skill, or is it luck? In cribbage, the statistical advantage goes to the player who understands and applies sound strategy, and the first opportunity to apply strategy - before any cards are played out - is at the discard. With over 400 pages and over 275,000 discard options analyzed, this book offers a complete list of every possible cribbage hand - 18,395 hands in total - and the mathematically best discard option for each, for both dealer and non-dealer. Spanning the entire range of hands from A-A-A-A-2-2 to Q-Q-K-K-K-K, this book presents every hand in order for ease of look-up. Simply put your six cards in order of card value, from smallest to largest, and flip to the page of the book that shows your hand. Next to each hand, the recommended best discard option for dealer and non-dealer ("pone" in cribbage lingo) is shown. Holding 5-5-6-6-9-9 and unsure which cards to toss to your opponent's crib? Look up this hand (pg. 314, hand #15,651) or any other six-card combination, and quickly discover which two cards represent the best discard. Keep this easy-to-use book next to the crib board to help remove the guesswork and make those tricky in-game choices easier, use the book as a learning tool, or as a fun guide to see how your discarding instincts align with the math. (You may be surprised!)
