"Two for his heels" (i.e. dealer scores two for turning up a jack on the
cut) is not considered part of the score for the hand.

Let's start something else, what's the fastest crib game you've played?
Years ago a friend and I played one in 9 minutes. That's twice round the
board (121 points to win), one deck, players pegging their own scores.

I know it was nine minutes, because we had a clock-watching ogre for a 
boss who didn't like us playing cards at lunch-time. We started at
12:51 and finished on time and went back to being good little
programmers.

Speed cribbage is a silly idea, but give it a try sometime you're
feeling jaded.

"They'll get my crib board when they peel my cold dead fingers off
 the pegs."
