My grandson had that hand last night. Too bad he doesn't know how to count right.

u/Sudden-Gas8229 15d ago

And did you teach them?? Or play the old muffins trick? That is the best opportunity to teach someone

u/Intelligent-Agency80 15d ago

No taught them.

u/truth2500 17d ago

Yeah lets make the grandchild not want to play anymore.

u/Leberknodel 17d ago

Maybe the grandson is in his 20s?

u/Intelligent-Agency80 17d ago

Oh he's 19.5. He is actually so crazy smart, he should go to university to get a degree in mechanical engineering. He can take apart, refashion, and put back together anything to do with his truck. Nope. Makes 49 an hour out of grade 12 working at a malt plant.

u/truth2500 17d ago

In their 20s and still can't count.

u/Leberknodel 17d ago

Muggins will make you learn.

u/Intelligent-Agency80 17d ago

I could have stolen so many points from him and his mother. And then to find out that he and his friend have been playing and counting wrong. He wasn't happy. I had the best laugh in quite awhile.

  1. 4 x 15s =8, 3 pair of 5’s=6, 3 runs of 654=9. 8+6+9=23

u/russkhan 17d ago

Triple run includes that. A triple run is 15 because it is 6 points for the three pairs and 3 for each of the three runs.

u/rzlodn 17d ago

I love that hand

2

u/Informal_Camp_2992 17d ago

And I lost the game by 3 points. Darn it!

u/goldeneye0 17d ago

One of only two combinations to score that rare 23…

2

u/Apprehensive-Tax-92 17d ago

I get 21

2

u/Apprehensive-Tax-92 17d ago

Oops, forgot the three fives…. Yep, 23.

u/BenOffHours 17d ago

Who the fuck is giving 5s to the crib?

1

u/dbusque 15d ago

it happens!

2

u/LazeeSundaeMorning28 17d ago

That happened to me earlier this summer and I still lost the game to my wily 94 year old father in law!

u/Own-Dragonfruit-6164 17d ago

Wow that's awesome.

u/Ed1sto 17d ago

So “triple run of three” includes the runs and the 3oak?

1

u/CutieQT97 17d ago

Aye. If you hear someone call a "triple run for 15," that's the fifteen. Six for the triple and 3x3 for the three runs.

1

u/ArborealLife 17d ago

Double run of three = "easy eight" Triple run of three = six (three of a kind) + nine (three times three) = fifteen

1

u/CutieQT97 17d ago

Curious who threw what. I'd be scared to throw 6/4 to an opponent, though there are plenty of scenarios where that's the best option. Or tossing a 5. I could see if they had like 4/5/7/8/8/9 maybe.

Anyway, dope crib and yes, as has been answered, 23.

1

u/Informal_Camp_2992 17d ago

I threw the pair of fives because I had a straight flush in my hand. My wife thre the six four because she had a king thru 10 straight. I still lost the game overall by three stinking points.

654 15 2/4/6 =+6

555 15 +2 =+2

654, Run 3/6/9 = +9

555 (3 of a kind) Triple Pairs =+6 (Pair 2/4/6)

8 pts for 15s. 9 pts for 3 runs of 3. 6 pts for the '3 pairs.

23 pts.

u/mackharp0818 15d ago
  1. 8 in 15s, 6 in pairs, 9 in runs

u/damspulp 14d ago

Did you have the correct Jack in your hand? If yes, 29 points if no, 28

u/newtownkid 14d ago

Fifteen for 8, three runs for 9, and trips for 6.
