When I first thought about the possibility of a cribbage contest here I wasn't sure of the response it would generate but was hopeful that at least a half dozen or so members might be of like mind and choose to participate. After being away at work and returning to discover the "overwhelming" reply to this thread it has become apparent that as to Xanadude I now will require a larger deck indeed. Therefore I believe the way to proceed now will be to add a second deck to accomodate the # of entries. So far there have been 28 members reply. In going forward a few things to keep on mind. Yes, flushes do count (4 inhand and 5 for the upturn card to match) Also due to the nature of this version there is a (albeit very slight) possibility of the unheard of 5 of a kind! and also the very real possibilty of actually scoring a "19" ! Aside from that I will leave this thread open to any further players joining and propose to start a second thread upon dealing the first round of three cards this evening. (planning for an 8:00 p.m. TCDb time deal) Following the second round tomorrow evening I ask that participants planning on proceeding to PM to me your choices for discards in order to form your respective hands before Monday evenings cut of the deck(s) for the upturn card and evaluation of your hands. Hopefully all will go well and the best of luck to all.
