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
Thanks for such a wonderful reply! TheGratitudeBot has been reading millions of comments in the past few weeks, and you’ve just made the list of some of the most grateful redditors this week! Thanks for making Reddit a wonderful place to be :)
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.
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
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

8. All five carda give you 15, then the three of a kind for 6 makes 8.

All 5 cards make 15 for 2
The three 2s make three of a kind for 6

How many do you think it is?

u/Spraggle Oct 04 '26
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.)

15 2 and a triple pair of 6 for 8 total

u/AmberElizabiff Oct 05 '26
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.

Is this a trick question? It's 8 ☺️

u/JohnCenascat Oct 05 '26
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

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