		<description><![CDATA[Cribbage, Game of the month for May 2010, is a great game to break up the monotony. It combines the flexibility of shot choice and pattern play of 8 Ball and 14.1 and the requirement to get position on one particular ball of all rotation games. Try Cribbage if you ever find yourself getting bored with your normal fare; you'll be surprised at how much you like it.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I had a strategy discussion a couple of days ago with a pool friend about offense vs defense in straight pool.  I balanced my chances for getting out (I needed 2) against my chance of winning a safety battle (he needed 5).  How would you go about making a decision like this?]]></description>
