2 Player Pinochle and Cribbage

Sort:
Darrin

Does anyone here play or know how to play this?  Some card experts claim it requires the most skill to play of any 2- handed card game.

While Cribbage isn't generally regarded as a high skill card game, I tend to disagree.  There is much to know regarding timing of when to play certain cards and being to anticipate what your opponent could play durig a given round.

Any thoughts?  Just trying to liven things up a bit.

I  know how to play 2 handed Pinochle and Cribbage, I was just wondering if anyone else did.  Danno knows how to play Cribbage, right Danno?

i've had my Jack Daniel barrel stave cribbage board for 30 years but i have played very few games on it....i mostly use it for scoring dominoes...i've heard of 2-handed pinochle but i can't imagine that being fun for long?!....they have a big cribbage tournament here every year during Fur Rondy:

2hp is lots of fun, but the rules can seem a bit overwhelming at first.
