| Matt | Thanks for the continued feedback. We're now running seven days a week. Also look for changes coming up with regards to suggested hands. |

The pegging has two 11 counts here do I will play on here to try to get 34 and beyond.Needed cuts for hands hands like that early yesterday.Nice showing jm. dec |
| Gougie00 574 votes Joined: March 2008 | Monday 4:03 AM I guessed right. I am not too pleased over the Q9 in my own crib which might yield 2 poinrs. |
| wb8mkv 87 votes Joined: October 2009 | Monday 4:09 AM I know the 9-Q is better to throw in the pones crib but I also know that he knows that and may pair me up...I cant over look the potental run with the 3 & 4 |
| Coeurdelion 545 votes Joined: October 2007 | Monday 4:14 AM 9-Q is horrible to our crib but got to hold 6pts. Great cut! 8-) |
| damonsmom 509 votes Joined: May 2008 | Monday 4:41 AM wish I would have went with my first thought and put the 8/9 in my crib but would have tough time to justify not keeping the 6 points -but darn sn 8/9 would probably have been better than Q/9 in crib oh well still have nice hand

| polynumeral 202 votes Joined: December 2008 | Monday 6:26 AM thought long and hard about the other choice , the 8,9 but just couldn't do it. |
| Guest | Monday 6:29 AM Granted, 9-Q's awful, but you gotta keep 6. I won't keep my hopes up for 100%. |
| Guest |  Monday 6:37 AM only a 5 cut does better |

| Ras2829 308 votes Joined: November 2008 | Monday 9:06 AM Half the time dealer just tosses the cards that don't work to the crib. Can't think about any other choice here. There are less than 10 of the 91 discards combinations that are worth a scarifice of two points in dealer hand and none of them look like 8-9. If you would like to know more about those and sacrifice limits, E-mail Ras@localaccess.com. |
| HalscribCLX 498 votes Joined: February 2008 | Monday 10:56 AM Playing an Offense strategy the dynamic expected averages and Win %'s are:
OFFENSE------Hand-Pegs-Crib-Total---W7 %-----W8 % 3-3-4-8______8.74+3.37+2.96=15.07___19.6_____39.3 3-3-4-Q______4.74+3.43+4.87=13.04___16.0_____33.3 3-3-4-9______6.57+3.20+3.23=13.00___15.7_____34.0 Although the crib expected average of 8-9 is 2pts better than 9-Q it is obviously not worth the the 4pts sacrifice. The 2pt sacrifice of discarding 8-Q is about the same as 3-3-4-Q on expected averages and Win %'s or you could say equally bad. 9-Q is clearly the correct choice. After the 2 cut I will play Offense to the lead. |
