Task
<p>When playing cribbage and you're at a score of 120, can you then win the game by playing the last card and getting 1 point for the "go"? I've seen people play where you're not allowed to win via the "go", but my personal feeling is that's not correct.</p>

<cribbage>
Is it allowed to win a game of cribbage with the single point from a "go"?
