Cribbage Discards (2nd Edition)

An essential guide to discarding in Cribbage Winning at the game of Cribbage - is it skill, or is it luck? In cribbage, the statistical advantage goes to the player who understands and applies sound strategy, and the first opportunity to apply strategy - before any cards are played out - is at the discard.  At 400 pages, this book contains a complete list of every possible six-card Cribbage hand. Inside are 18,395 six-card hands, spanning the entire range of hands from A-A-A-A-2-2 to Q-Q-K-K-K-K (and presented in order for ease of look-up), with the mathematically best discard option, for both dealer and opponent, included for each. Holding 6-6-7-8-9-9 and unsure which cards to toss to your opponent's crib? Look up this hand (pg. 338, hand #16890), or any other hand, and quickly discover which two cards represent the best toss. Keep this book next to the crib board to help remove the guesswork and make those tricky in-game choices easier, use it as a learning tool, or as a fun guide to see how your discarding instincts align with the math.
