One of our more exciting cribbage tournaments (even if I did come in next to last place)!!
We started the day with TEN (10) players, so we had to set up an additional table to accommodate everyone. I say the more...the merrier!! Harley took first place today, but it took a skunk on his last game to secure that position. Cindy came in second and Steve came in third, each winning 6 games and earning 14 game points, so the difference of a mere 12 points in spread was the deciding factor. Jim and Huck didn't have that shabby of a day either. They both chocked up 12 game points, qualifying them for GrassRoots points. And Arlyn missed the cutoff for GrassRoots points by 1 game point. She had a scorecard of 11 game points. So close!! Ray and Karen decided not to show off this week, although Karen did skunk two of her opponents and Ray skunked one of his. First time visitor Dan Clayton seemed to enjoy the day, despite coming in last place. He was the first to grab the CHICKEN and claim the $5 pot for the FIRST 24-HAND, and then managed to hang onto it all day, to claim another $5 pot for the LAST 24-HAND of the day. We missed Julia's presence today. She probably has the best attendance this season. We hope to see her back next week! My thanks to JIm for providing me with transportation to today's tournament. Thanks to Steve for the goodies he provided. And thanks to everyone who helped set up and take down the tables and chairs. If it's Saturday at 1...it's CRIBBAGE at the Eagles! JOIN THE FUN!! Mike
