Everything I Understand About Cribbage After Having A Friend Explaining It Relentlessly And Playing A Couple Games Over This Interactive Text-Based Link:
- It’s a card game.
- Also there’s pegs.
- There’s a running total that doesn’t get above 31, only if it gets to 31 or 30 or 15 it goes back to 0.
- You put down cards.
- Your opponent puts down cards.
- Sometimes you’re finished with the cards and you move pegs.
- I don’t understand anything about cribbage.
- If you play it right the game eventually ends. (If it doesn’t, go back and start again because you missed something.)
- You want cards to make like pairs or flushes or something and I think maybe it counts if you make a straight with some of your opponents’ cards or maybe I don’t understand that?
- I’m pretty shaky on backgammon too.
- Every hand starts with you giving away two of your cards to the crib, and I guess you’re supposed to someday ever see them again, or maybe not, and maybe they’re just a reminder of the inevitability of loss in this universe and a way to practice being at peace with the eventual decay of all things and the end of all life.
- I will never have any idea what bridge is about.
