Hello Wikipedia... In your excellent article Cribbage statistics, may I point out that there seems to be an error in the table regarding the percentage of hands at least as high (for a hand of 29 points)... It is impossible to have more than one hand of 29 points in any round of a game of Crib, and hence the possibility is 0% and not 0.00003!!! A hand of 29 points requires holding three 'fives' and the 'jack' with the same suit as the common cut card, the remaining fourth 'five'... Simply, only one player can hold three 'fives' and the 'jack' of suit in any given round...  I believe the next possible highest hands of an opponent player (two 'fours' and two 'sixes') only scores 24 with the common cut card, a 'five'...   I play a lot of crib, and I will concede that 0.00003 is very close to zero, but that means that there is a chance when there is not!!! LOL! :) PAUL
