The cut of 6d has given me the whole eight points I need, so I don't need to worry about a pegging strategy. 5 lead.

   

Sunday 3:06 AM

Chose to toss T-J as this hand only has one cut that doesn't add value to the hand. Also 16 cuts increase hand to 8/10 points.

   

Sunday 3:12 AM

Might be wrong I also kept a chance that if I do not get in this hand will have a possibility of playing pegging out durng next hand. Will see what that bot references as the best shot. dec

I kept the cluster just in case of a middle card and because its better for pegging. Since I nailed the cut, I'll lead the 7 and play off.

   

Sunday 6:02 AM

Only a Ace and four doesn't get me at least 6 points and I retain the chance for nobs. Also, don't like throwing the 10-J as the dealer is not necessarily going out on this deal. I don't want to help them.

   

Sunday 7:36 AM

I'm trying to increase my chance to peg out next deal by not tossing 10 J

   

Sunday 8:08 AM

I chose to try and show out this hand. This choice has the highest average hand. See Rosemarie44's post. I'm not interested in expected averages at this point. If I fall short, it seems like it will peg about as well offensively as any of the other options.

A most fortuitous cut. Lead the safer 3. Dump the 5 next time on anything that seems reasonably safe. If Dealer drops an X-card it's sayonara to my 5. Dealer can pair it for all I care. Good riddance.

I discarded the 3 and J. Thought that left me with lots of possibilities. It did pay off.

   

Sunday 3:01 PM

In this position I think we just need to hold the hand most likely to score and peg 8pts. I think 3-5-7-8 fits the bill well:

3-5-7-8: Improbes with 2222, 333, 4444, 555, 6666, 888, 9999 + 14xXs = 39 cuts = 39/46 = 84.8% and 333, 4444, 555, 6666, 888 = 17 cuts score 8pts or more and the remaining 22 6/7pts needing to peg 1/2pts.

3-5-7-8 is best for Win %s and Loss %s so I'll select 10-J to discard.

After the 6 cut I'll lead the 7 and play Optimally (cautious offense):
