Up Jenkins

Two teams sit across a table. One team secretly passes a coin around under the table, then slams their hands down flat with the coin hidden under one. The other team points at hands to lift, one at a time. If the hand with the coin is the last one left, they score. If it turns up sooner, the hiding team scores.
