cribbage board
Quick Summary
A cribbage board is a scoring device used in the card game of cribbage. It is typically a narrow rectangle with holes where players use pegs to track their scores, usually up to 121 points, which involves moving around the board twice. The game of cribbage, often played by two people, involves forming card combinations to score points. While the cribbage board is traditional, scores can also be kept with pencil and paper. The game, believed to have been invented by Sir John Suckling in the 17th century, remains popular in Britain and the United States.123
