Although the rules of cribbage do not require it (except in tournament play), the traditional method of keeping score is to use a cribbage board.

The maximum score for any hand containing a 2 is 20; either 22229 or 26778 if the latter is a four-card flush. The highest score as a dealer from the hand and crib is 53.
