Everyone who is playing is responsible for counting the running total out loud whenever they put a card down.
If you exceed 31, your opponent gets 1 point, and vice versa.
Whoever lays down the final card in the running total gets 1 extra point.
Runs don’t necessarily have to be in order. For example, if you put down a 3, your opponent puts down a 5, and then you put down a 4, that counts as a run of 3 and you’d get 3 points. The amount of points you get depends on how many cards are in the run.
It may be helpful to count your points out loud so that everyone can hear them.
This card is also called the starter card. Keep track of your scores on a notepad.
Remember to use the starter card to make runs for extra points.
Add the starter card to give yourself more points in each pair.
This is called a flush.
Alternate who is dealing so that each player gets to count the crib as their own at least once.
