9 Card Cribbage Wars Game Highlights

We’ve got a YouTube video of our 9 card cribbage wars game yesterday. I think it took at least half a dozen tries because the counts were so high. We used the skunked.club computer scorer, but it still took 70 minutes to finish the game.

The skunked.club scorer helped a lot but it doesn’t work if you need to count complicated runs containing any 10 cards. It’s OK with face cards, but it doesn’t handle ones and zeros in counting runs. It also doesn’t take suits into account so it won’t count the nob jacks or flushes. You’re on your own for those.

I just recorded the highlights because it took so much time to play and count the hand and crib scores.

We switched out 3 batteries for the camera to keep filming progress going although we also reviewed the clips in between. It was an all-day thing!

I don’t know if anyone else has ever tried to record a mashup game of 9 card cribbage and cribbage wars. What did I learn from it?

9 card cribbage should be outlawed!
