 Hi. In a game a while back, after I received my cards, 4556??, and having first crib, I was of course going to discard ??. But before I could, my opponent left the table. He then returned immediately, and the computer gave him first crib starting a new game. He had enough time to see his cards, didn't like what he saw, and bailed. Fair or foul?

 Were you playing for Tix? If not does it really matter? If so, I would not be playing that person again and refuse to hit start.

| Play cribbage tournaments online At GameColony.com you can play games of skill only -- play for free or play for $prizes!. 
According to the statutes of most states in the United States, gambling is defined as: "risking something of value upon the outcome of a contest of chance". (Also see No Gambling!).   The skill (as opposed to chance) is predominant in games of skill. Playing games of skill for $prizes, therefore, has nothing to do with gambling as it is not a contest of chance -- the more skillful player will win far more often. The chance element of a 'gamble' is either insignificant or missing. When players compete in tournaments or games of skill for $prizes -- it is "competitive entertainment" rather then "gambling". The more skilled winner will always win more matches, tournaments and $prizes.
