How to Play
As in cribbage, a card is cut to add to the crib. This card is placed in thecenter of a 5x5 grid. Starting with the dealer’s opponent, each playerlooks at his top card and either tosses it into the crib (if he hasn’talready done so twice this hand), or plays it on any vacant space in the grid.One player is trying to build the best possible hands in each column, while theother tries to do the same with the rows.
When all cards have been played, each five card hand is scored and the dealeradds the crib to his total. The player with the higher total scores the differencebetween the totals, with the game going to the first player to reach 31.
Cribbage had become a mechanical affair for us, both in choosing which cardsto toss into the crib and which cards to play when. We went through the motions,with a rare play sparking some actual thought. CrossCribb put a whole new spinon things. With pegging removed, you concentrate on building the best hands andstopping your opponent from doing the same.
The balance between offensive and defensive card play is devilish. If my opponenthas already created a row with 4-5-5-6, playing an 8 into it is a no-brainer.But what if I draw a queen? Do I give him 4 points, or do I risk him drawinga 4, 5 or 6? Tough call– especially since I could place the queen in oneof the columns with a 5, scoring points for myself. And if the queen’sthe same suit as one of the fives, it becomes an even tougher choice.
You only need four cards of the same suit for a flush, which adds a frustratingcomponent to defensive play. You want to break up the forming double run, butthe card you just drew would give a flush instead. Play it anyway, or hope youropponent doesn’t draw what he needs and you get a better stopper next time?
