This should be a high % discard in my opinion.

Some interesting pegging sequences. Particularly Hand 9 preparing for the bad beat.

It should be. How close the J-3 discard is the only other choice considering. Queen hearts lead. dec
Inushtuk1 says: Hi Dan. Why the Qh lead as opposed to the flush fake?
dec says: it was a tie with the Queen of clubs saw the heart cut probably minimal effect. dec
Inushtuk1 says: Yes, i see it now. Thanks Dan.

Agree with above. Gotta go offensively here and try to get to hole 69-70.

tevdodd says: I think we're gonna see Hand 1 again. I went A-K confidently, but saw another DCH commentor that did go 4-5.
james500 says: It was an interesting hand. A case can be made for each of the three discards.
Tall Troy says: I apologize if this isn't the proper place to ask this. I'll ask James but if anybody knows the answer, I would appreciate knowing. What makes the "brutal" setting on Cribbage Pro brutal verses challenging? Does brutal know our cards?
Inushtuk1 says: I don't think so. Perhaps it just takes a very aggressive approach at all times, which can be taken advantage of. Not sure. good question though.
Inushtuk1 says: I went 4-4-5-5(A-K).
james500 says: Hi Troy. From the FAQ on the Cribbage Pro site, https://www.cribbagepro.net/faq-how-to.html the following answer is given: "...on the easy (Standard) and intermediate (Challenging) levels, the computer will make scoring mistakes just as it makes sub-optimal choices when it plays cards/etc. On the advanced (Brutal) level, no mistakes are ever made..."

I'd be with the majority playing a game of cribbage. I played hand of the day.

At 55-58* playing an Offense strategy for the pegging the dynamic expected averages and Win/Loss %s are:

________________Our
Offense___Hand__Pegs_Crib____Total___W4 %____W5 %
5-J-Q-Q____10.63+1.39+(-5.76)=6.26____10.5____35.9
4-5-Q-Q_____8.24+1.52+(-4.66)=5.10_____5.8____28.6
3-5-Q-Q_____7.98+1.35+(-4.48)=4.85_____5.2____27.4

Offense______L4 %____L5 %
5-J-Q-Q_______11.8____36.3
4-5-Q-Q________8.8____39.0
3-5-Q-Q________8.4____39.3

5-J-Q-Q is best for expected averages by 1.16pts. and is very much best for Win %s. Although it is very slightly worst for Loss %s I'll select the 3-4 to discard.

After the 6 cut I'll lead a Q and play Offense:

Lead__________Our Pegging Points
Q____________________1.39
J____________________1.19
5____________________1.17

I’m with the crowd here, chancing the 3-4 discard to maximize my hand at this position.
