How to Play:
-
Deal & Discard: Each player is dealt six cards and must choose two to place into the “crib” — a bonus hand scored by the dealer later.
-
The Starter Card: A single card is flipped from the deck; if it’s a Jack, the dealer scores 2 points (“His Heels”).
-
Pegging Phase: Players take turns laying down one card at a time, adding the values until reaching 31 or lower. Score points for combinations like pairs, runs, or reaching exactly 15 or 31.
-
The Show: Once all cards are played, players reveal their hands and score for combinations using the starter card as a shared extra. The dealer also scores the crib.
-
Goal: Be the first to reach 121 points by pegging, hand counting, and strategic play!
