"A toss of a coin decides who starts. Players take turns to move a single peg of their own colour. In one turn a peg may either be simply moved into an adjacent hole OR it may make one or more hops over other pegs. Where a hopping move is made, each hop must be over an adjacent peg and into a the vacant hole directly beyond it. Each hop may be over any coloured peg including the player's own and can proceed in any one of the six directions. After each hop, the player may either finish or, if possible and desired, continue by hopping over another peg. Occasionally, a player will be able to move a peg all the way from the starting triangle across the board and into the opposite triangle in one turn!
Pegs are never removed from the board. It is permitted to move a peg into any hole on the board including holes in triangles belonging to other players, even triangles not presently in use. However, once a peg has reached the opposite triangle, it may not be moved out of the triangle - only within the triangle."
