Read the full Cribbage rules and tips1. Discard to the crib
You are dealt six cards and put two into the crib. The crib belongs to the dealer, so feed it only when it is yours.
2. The cut
A card is cut to sit with both hands. If it is a jack the dealer takes two for it, which is called his heels.
3. The play
Take turns laying cards, calling the running total. Fifteen and thirty-one score two; pairs, triples and runs score as they appear. Never go past thirty-one.
