Cribbage Rules Run Of 5

THE RULES OF CRIBBAGE (For two players) Rank of Cards - K (high), Q, J, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, A. Object of the Game - Be the first person to peg off the board. The Draw, Shuffle and Cut - Dealer distributes six cards face down to his opponent and himself, beginning with the opponent. Run A run or sequence is a set of 3 or more cards of consecutive ranks (irrespective of suit) - such as 2-3-4-5 or 10-Jack-Queen. Ace is low so ace-king-queen is not a run. The player of a card which completes a run scores for the run; the score is equal to the number of cards in the run. The cards do not have to be played in. In the follow sequence of cards does the pone (non-dealer) score 2 runs for a total of six points? After the run of 2-3-4-5 is played can the pone play another 3 to make 4-5-3 into another run? P 2 (2 total) D 3 (5 total) P 4 (9 total) Run for 3 D 5 (14 total) Run for 4 P 3 (17 total) Run for 3?. does this score points? From the American Cribbage Congress Rules of Cribbage: straight (or run), single: Sequence of three or more consecutive cards in any order during the play of the cards; for example, 3-5-6-7-4 (counts three when the 7 is played and counts five when the 4 is played) When the second 4 is played by Player 1 the last 4 cards played are: 3, 5, 6, 4. Similarly, if anyone lays a card such that with the three or more preceding cards, a run can be constructed, the number of cards which would make up that run are scored. Suppose cards were laid in the following order: 8,6,4,5,7. The fourth card would score 3 points, the fifth card would score five points.

Object

• Outscore your opponent by making or extending Crib Hands with the tiles.
  (The concept of the game is similar to using tiles to create words in a word game.)
• A Crib Hand is a row of 2 to 5 tiles that combine to form cribbage points (runs, pairs and/or fifteens).

Start

• Low draw plays first. (Keep score with a pen and paper.)
• Without peeking, all players draw 5 tiles from the bag and place them on their tile holder.
• The first person to play forms a Crib Hand using 2,3,4 or 5 of their tiles, then positions them in a straight line, next to each other, anywhere on the board.
• Each turn is complete once a player records their score and replenishes their tile stock to 5.
• All plays after the first must merge with the tiles already on the board to create or extend Crib Hands.

Rules

1. No play (Crib Hand) may exceed 5 tiles. (See example 6.)
2. Played tiles must be in a straight line.
3. Diagonal playing or scoring is never allowed.
4. Every tile played must contribute points toward a Crib Hand.
5. Runs do not need to be in sequence. (see examples)
6. All plays, after the first, must consist of 1 to 5 tiles.
7. Face tiles are valued at 10 when making 'fifteens'.
8. Aces are valued at 1 when making 'fifteens' or 'runs'.
9. 6's can be turned around and played as 9's or vice versa, but once they are on the board their value is set.
10. If no play is possible, player misses a turn and can exchange from 1 to 5 of their tiles with those in the bag.

END GAME

When no tiles are left in the bag, the game ends immediately if one player runs out of tiles or no play is possible by any player. Leftover tiles are deducted from each player's score at face value. (Face tiles = 10, Aces = 1)

HOW TO SCORE
(same as cribbage)

10 POINT BONUS

• First player to start.
• Play all 5 of your tiles in one turn.
• Create or extend a Crib Hand so that all 5 tiles are the same color. (ex. 2/3/J/J/5) all light or 7/8/7/6/8 all dark) Note: Same rules apply vertically.

OPTIONAL RULES

SERVANT

The player with the lowest score after each round is called the 'Servant' and he or she must keep score for the other players. This rule creates additional amusement as it becomes a status symbol not to become the Servant.

JOKER

The first player to shout 'Joker' if they spot points unclaimed by their opponent (after their score is recorded), may claim those points. Should the shouter yell out before the points are recorded or if there are no missed points, the shouter becomes the Joker and 5 points are deducted from his or her score.

SOLITAIRE

Separate the dark & light tiles then play them against each other using the standard rules.

Crib Rules Run Of 5

Intro
Though in online cribbage you don't need to score manually the counting your cribbage hand correctly is a very important part of the game of Cribbage. Moreover, you can select the 'Manual' option or play non-online cribbage with Muggins variation. Muggins is when a person misses points and the other person takes them. To simplify calculation, order your cribbage hand left to right from low cards to high. Of course, in online cribbage it is done already.
In explanation below we use card notation of all our card games, 'Suit Value', DJ means Jack of Diamonds, S0 means 10 of Spades etc.

The Scoring points
Let's recall cribbage scoring, rules and the the combinations that give points:
15: Any combination of cards adding up to 15 pips scores 2 points. For example king, jack, five, five would count 8 points (four fifteens as the king and the jack can each be paired with either five). This combination would be marked as fifteen: 8.
Pair: A pair of cards of the same rank score 2 points. Three cards of the same rank contain 3 different pairs and thus score a total of 6 points for pair royal. Four of a kind contain 6 pairs and so score 12 points.
Run: Three cards of consecutive rank (irrespective of suit), such as ace-2-3, score 3 points for a run. A hand such as 6-7-7-8 contains two runs of 3 (as well as two fifteens and a pair) and so would score 12 altogether. A run of four cards, such as 9-10-J-Q scores 4 points (this is slightly illogical - you might expect it to score 6 because it contains two runs of 3, but it doesn't. The runs of 3 within it don't count - you just get 4), and a run of five cards scores 5.
Flush: If all four cards of the hand are the same suit, 4 points are scored for flush. If the start card is the same suit as well, the flush is worth 5 points. There is no score for having 3 hand cards and the start all the same suit. Note also that there is no score for flush during the play - it only counts in the show.
One For His Nob: If the hand contains the jack of the same suit as the start card, you peg One for his nob.

Cribbage hand scoring order
In general the best approach is to count your 15's, then pairs, then runs, then Nobs, then finally flushes. The same approach we use on checking your hands on our servers and gaming program.

What Is A Run Of 5 Worth In Cribbage

Counting 15s in hand
It is a good idea to remember 3 typical pairs, that give you 15 in total
i.e. 7+8, 6+9, 5+10
If you do not see the above template pairs, but have at least one card from such pairs, you can try to find 3-card combinations to complete the sum to 15 with using the same pattern. For example
See, we have one card from the above pairs and form the other card as a sum of 2 cards (D3+S4 will give 7). To go futher we can extend this method to 4 and 5 cards. If you cannot find 7s, 8s, or 9s or Try to sum any 2 cards to get
Repeat your search not to omit any combination. Start from the bigger value cards and try to gather 15 to it. For example:
HQ and DA+S4, D8 and DA+C2+S4
Some cribbage hands cause confusion for people who forget about the low cards in the hand - they can be added to other cards in hand to form the 'seed' 7s, 8s, or 9s. Example:
S8 and H7, S8 and C6+DA, S8 and C6+CA, and the last one - H7 and C6+DA+CA will give you 8 points on 15s. As for this example, there is also a pair of Aces (2 points) and a run 6,7,8 (3 points) - total 13.
The next confusing cribbage hand type for 15s counting is a hand contaning many pairs. For example
We see, that here we can form pattern '7+8'. Just start from every high value card and search for all the others. C8 and C6+DA, C8 and H6+DA, S8 and C6+DA, S8 and H6+DA, 8 points for 15s (and 4 for two pairs). So each card pair simply doubles the initial combination 8,6,A. You will see the same rule later in runs counting.

Counting pairs in hand
It's quite simple, just not to forget to count a pair in your hand after difficult 15s scoring. Remember, that all cards above 10 (J,Q,K) have the same value 10 in cribbage and result a pair in any combination. Also, the royal pair (3 cards of the same rank) can be imagined as 3 simple pairs and thus give the score of 3 pairs, i.e. 2 * 3 = 6 points. The same is for Four of a kind - (4 cards of the same rank) - it is 6 simple pairs, that gives you 2 * 6 = 12 points.

Scoring runs in hand
There is a simple rule for runs in cribbage - how many cards run has - the same number of points you gets. So that single run counting is easy. Some more complicated run is a double run - sometimes people just learning the game don't really understand how a double run works. The idea is that you can count each completely different set of cards that be combined for a run.
2,3,4 is a run, but you have here H2 and C2, so that, each of them gives you a separate run of 3 cards. You can remember here our rule that each pair in the combination doubles its score points. Run H2,S3,D4 gives 3 points, run C2, S3, D4 gives another 3 points. To use this hand completely let's recount it, first 15s: S9 and D4+H2, S9 and D4+C2 (9-6 pattern) - 4 points for 15s. A pair H2C2 - 2 points, 6+4+2 = 12 points in your hand. Remember, that such a double-run with the lenght of 3 cards gives 8 points automatically - 6 for runs and 2 for the pair
A double-double run (always involves all 5 cards in hand - 4 plus a starter card) itself is worth 16 points, you get 4 times of 3 points = 12 for the runs and 4 for two pairs
After detecting a double-double run you should concentrate on 15s, having in mind, that 16 points is a standard sum for the double-double run total. In the above example we also have 2 extra points for 15s - sum all the cards in your hand (7+8 pattern).

Scoring flushes
Flushes can give 4 or 5 points - again, on the number of cards in it. 4 points for all four cards in your hand of the same suit and 5 points, if a starter card has the same suit. If you have only 3 cards in your hand of one suit and a starter card of the same suit it will NOT be a flush. Example:
It would be a co-called bust hand, but we have one suit for all the cards, so it worth 5 poitns.

Scoring Nobs
Pay attention to Jacks in your hand, one of them can give you one extra point if the starter card has the same suit. Let's modify the previous example a little:
Here we do not have flush now, but with the Hearts suit of the starter HA and a Jack of Hearts in our hand give us 1 point.
