If I have a four card straight (say 7,8,9,10), does that count as 4 points or 4 + 3 + 3 (as in the four card straight plus 7,8,9 and 8,9,10)?

Thanks.

Not played for years, but pretty sure it's 4 only.

Thanks. I have been scoring four but just wanted to check as most other scores seem to follow the principle that you score for each permutation.

Cheers - confusing though because one of the demo hands there scores 8 for a "double run" (4,5,5,6) - surely that's just 6 points (2 x 3-card straights)?

don't forget the two 15s

Yes, they were scored separately. I see now, though - the term "double run" appears to include the pair of 5's in the example.

4,5,5,6 scores 12. 2 lots of 15, a pair and 2 threee card runs.

I think I've got it. Cheers. Need to avoid a skunking next time I play...

4 for the straight, 2 for the 15 ( 7@8) = 6, what was the turn up
