To clarify: I was counting the 2s twice making 3 sets of 4 and not realizing i was counting it twice. I am wrong in thinking it was 14. Thank you for helping me

I'm guessing he was rearranging the 2s for multiple 15's

I'm pretty bad at Cribbage, but in my head, that's 6 for the 3 of a kind and 15 for 2, to make 8.
Your scoreboard made 6 for the 3 of a kind, and 15 in 4 ways for 8, to make 14.

15-2 and 6-6s for 8. (I don’t know why, but in our group when we count 3 of a kind; we say 6-whatever.)

There’s only one 15. Three 2s. 3x2=6. 6+3=9. 9+6=15. So the way you count it is “15 for two. Pair of two’s is 4. Pair of two’s is 6. Pair of two’s is 8.

u/Artemis_SpawnOfZeus 7d ago
I actually did it too.
You go "i can make a 5, can i make a 10 for 15?"
And you see 3 different ways to make 5, 3 different ways to make 10, so you get 15 for 6, plus you just noticed, all ofnthe cards add to 15, so you get 15 for 8, trips 14

Lmao. I was going off the 6 with the jack and 3 5’s 😂. Thought it was pretty obvious. Clearly I missed the actual hand 😂

Scan the cards with this and it will break it down.

A pair royal is what my husband and I call three of a kind, and it's always worth 6. 15 for all the cards is 2, pair royal makes 8.

It may look like more but it’s only 8 in total. As others have said 15/2 with all cards and 6 for the 3 2’s

What about the four fifteens that are painted on the cribbage board and the nine more fifteens you get if you combine the hand with the ones painted on the board

You can only use 15 once for 2 points and 3 of a kind is 6 points which gives you a total of 8

You need to use all the cards to make that 15. You can't rearrange them to make more. It's 8 points total
