Gotta manufacture a 5 pt peg somehow. The alternative discard (for me) is 2368, but it does potentially open up the albatross situation where opp is short, but so are we.

Good peggers and all cuts give me enough just in case pone stumbles

2 chances for runs. Maybe pone holds A456?

Like these two sets of touching cards to try and trap opponent in runs. We have all middle card leads covered with the 6-7. The 2-3 can be powerful peggers on the end of a pegging sequence.

Keeping the 2-3 together may be enough to put me out at the tail end of the pegging.
Not concerned about the crib,if pone stumbles, I should be able to reach 121 with pegging plus two hand counts.
Hope mrob posts today

I kept the two-card 11 and the separate 5 trap with the 6-7 for our desperation pegging.

I debated 2367 as well, went this way because... I don't know? We need to peg 5. I'm not trusting pone to have less than 5. Aggressively peg anything.

I didn't have high hopes I'll score with the 678. Pone is likely to avoid those cards. I'll keep two chances at runs with the 23 and 78.
ryman554 says: Remember here the hand itself is meaningless. I'll get 4 points between hand and crib. How do I peg 5 against an opponent who doesn't want me to peg at all?
dph says: I held the same. Picturing a sequence like: (3)-3-(X)-8-(5)-2 to get my first 4 points. I kept the 7-8 rather than 6-7 to try to get to that 31.

Ras taught me about the best peggers. Not worried about the crib at all.

Playing by the book holding 3-8 as the two card 11 combo and 6-7 as the 5 trap. My next favorite is 2-3-6-7 using the three card 11 2-3-6 to trap low cards approaching count 31.

I missed all the pegging…

Everything helps me- if I get that far. Trying to avoid giving away the store and pick up points during the pegging.

At 116*-116 playing an Optimal strategy for the pegging the Our Peg Out %s and Pone Peg Out %s are:

Optimal_____Our Peg Out %_____Pone Peg Out %
2-6-7-J_________10.5______________0.7
3-6-7-8_________10.1______________0.4
2-6-7-8__________9.4______________1.9

I'll decide based on the best chance of Pegging Out and select the 3-8 to discard.

After the 9 cut I'll play defense to the lead.

Trying to peg out here, so I will keep the 4 lowest cards dealt to us. If I'm hoping to trap pone, it is nice to have 2 sets of consecutive ranked cards, needing to peg 4 plus a go. If I only needed 3, I might be more inclined to keep the magic 11 (3-8).
