The Charleston

The Second Charleston (Optional)

After the mandatory First Charleston, players may vote to continue with a second round in reverse order — but any single player can stop it before it starts.

The Second Charleston mirrors the first (right, across, left) but only happens if every player agrees to continue. If even one player declines, the Charleston ends there.

Example

If three players want to keep passing but the fourth says no, the table skips the Second Charleston entirely and moves on to Courtesy passing or straight into turns.
