Pegging Tactics:
- Aim to create pairs, runs, and other combinations during pegging to maximize your score.
- Keep track of the cards that have been played to anticipate what your opponent might have in their hand.
- Be cautious when playing cards that could help your opponent complete a run or set.
-
Crib Management:
- Discard strategically to your crib, considering potential point-scoring combinations.
- Avoid giving away high-value cards or cards that could create strong combinations in your opponent's crib.
-
Counting Cards:
- Develop the ability to quickly count and recognize card combinations that add up to 15.
- Counting cards during pegging and the play phase is crucial to maximize points.
-
Defensive Play:
- Block your opponent's scoring opportunities during pegging by avoiding card plays that create point combinations for them.
- Try to peg defensively when your opponent is close to winning to delay their victory.
-
Hand and Crib Evaluation:
- Evaluate your starting hand and crib for potential high-scoring combinations, such as pairs, runs, and flushes.
- Consider the potential points in your hand when deciding whether to play defensively or aggressively.
-
Play the Odds:
- Calculate the odds of drawing specific cards to help make informed decisions during the game.
- Learn the probabilities of different card combinations to better predict potential scores.

Positional Advantage:
- In a two-player game, the non-dealer has a slight advantage, so be more aggressive with your plays.
- As the dealer, focus on setting up your crib with high-scoring cards while limiting your opponent's pegging opportunities.

Mind Your Opponent's Pegging:
- Pay attention to your opponent's pegging style and patterns to anticipate their moves and adjust your strategy accordingly.
- Try to disrupt their pegging combinations and make it harder for them to score.
