Face your opponent across the table, plant your elbow on the pad, and lock hands with your free hand gripping the peg. On the referee's go, drive your opponent's hand down to the pad.

Elbow stays on the pad for the whole match — lifting it is a foul. Shoulders square to the table and the free hand stays on the peg. A pin is the back of the hand touching the pad. Two fouls lose the match. Log your result as a win, draw or loss with your opponent's name. Extra matches vs new opponents earn effort points.
