Cribbage Square

Description

Place cards on the 4x4 grid and combine them with the Starter Card to create Cribbage Hands.

How to Play

Each hand is made from a column or row on the grid plus the Starter Card on the upper right.
Aces count as low.

Hover over the score on each row/column once it is complete to see how that hand was scored.

SCORING

Each hand can earn points in different ways:

Flushes (4 or 5 points)
A four-card flush using all the cards in a row or column is worth 4 points. An extra point is added if the Starter Card matches the suit of the four-card flush.

Runs (3 - 5 points each)
A run consists of three or more cards with sequential rank. (5-6-7, or 8-9-T). Multiple runs can be made on each hand with cards that share the same rank:

Example:
If a hand consists of 3c-4h-5s-5c-6s, there are two runs of four cards each:
3c-4h-5s-6s (4 points)
3c-4h-5c-6s (4 points)

Pairs (2 points each)
Each pair is worth 2 points. Three-of-a-kinds are worth 6 points "Pair Royale". Four-of-a-kinds are worth 12 points "Double Pair Royale".

Fifteens (2 points each)
Each combination of cards that adds up to fifteen is worth 2 points.

Jack In Nobs (1 points)
A Jack in the hand that matches the suit of the Starter Card.

Jack In Heels (2 points)
A Jack in the Starter Card.
