The aim of Cribbage is to be the first to move the pegs all the way up and down the board twice and end in the in the game hole. The pegs move up the outside of one side of the board and then back down the inside. Two pegs record the score for each player, the rear peg showing the previous tally, the foremost peg recording the current score.
Scoring is normally recorded on a traditionally crafted board with four parallel lines of 30 holes each plus 2 game holes. Cribbage is played with an ordinary pack of 52 cards without jokers.
