Do I Believe in the "26 Theory?"

The 26 theory states that over 2 hands, a deal and a non-deal, on average, you will get 26 points. Based on that, you should know where you are relative to winning at all points in the game.

I do follow the 26-theory, and I know the hole positions, but I actually think the exact number is different for each player, based on the style of cribbage they play. I think I'm pretty agressive, so for me it might be the 27 or 28 theory, but I've never kept enough data to figure it out. I should keep track of how many deals I play my games in some time. Maybe I'll do that next Grass Roots season.
