Sometimes, there's this.

Cribbage hand with 27555J
Dealer's hand is 27555J. Oh. My. Goodness.

I'm dealing. I've got this 27555J hand.

We're close to the maximum possible.

Discard the 27 and hope for the starter to be the missing 5♣.

Sadly. I'm holding 5♢ and J♢, so I can't hope for a starter that elevates my J into His Nobs. But. I'm as close as I've ever been!


Starter was a 7.

Pone gave me an 8 and I don't remember what.

So. 14 in the hand 6 in the crib. Plus a point or two in play. Above par. But. Not epic.

And I did win. Just barely.
