Drop a pawn in 7th rank is not permited, but the rules can vary and nobody knows how it came to Mexico, but it is really delightful specially for young people, who considers it with so much excitement.

Normally played with 5 minute time controls, no increment, and the team loses when either player loses. When a player is about to get mated they will wait until their time runs out, unless their partner's opponent has more time, in which case they will resign :) Table talk generally includes 'knight is mate' (meaning that player can give checkmate with a knight) or 'don't give him a knight!' (meaning if that player's opponent gets a knight, some kind of terrible disaster will happen), but suggestions of moves to play for your partner are frowned upon. Questions like 'Should I sac my queen for a pawn?' are also acceptable.
