Online Cribbage game launched

News on 17 Aug 2017

Cribbage, a classic betting game popular since the seventeenth century, has been launched in the modern online environment by 1×2 Network.

The objective of the traditional game is to be the first player to score a target number of points, typically 61 or 121. Points are scored for card combinations that add up to fifteen, and for pairs, triples, quadruples, runs and flushes.

Play proceeds through a succession of “hands”, each hand consisting of a “deal”, “the play” and “the show.” At any time during any of these stages, if a player reaches the target score (usually 121), play ends immediately with that player being the winner of the game. This can even happen during the deal, since the dealer can score if a Jack is cut as the starter.

1×2 Network is currently offering the game on both its network and via the NYX OGS platform.
