Self-killed. Failed by Kevan.

Add after the first paragraph of “The Game”, if it exists, otherwise “Tournament Rules of Giolitti”:

Each Game has a Stakes, which is an integer that defaults to 1 when a Game begins.

Change the paragraph in the same rule beginning “When each Player of a Game has made seven Plays in that Game” to:

If they were not the last player in the game to do so, either player in a Game may post a Sfida, which a comment that says it is a Sfida. Before either player may make their next Play or post another Sfida, the opponent of the player posting Sfida must respond with a comment specifying whether they accept or reject the Sfida. If they accept, the stakes of the Game are multiplied by 1.5 and rounded up. If they reject, the Game is Closed, and the player posting the Sfida is the Game’s Campione.

When each Player of a Game has made seven Plays in that Game, that Game is Closed, and the Campione of the Game is the player with the highest score.

The Dealer may, and should at their earliest convenience, make a comment on a Closed game that identifies any Players of the game that named a card in a Play, that they did not begin that Game with. This comment, known as the Fine, ends the Game. If the Fine identified no players, the Game is Clean.

Each Player has a number of pegs, which is publicly tracked and which defaults to zero; when a game ends, its Campione gains a number of pegs equal to the game’s stakes if the game is clean; if the game is not clean, any players not identified in its Fine gain pegs equal to the game’s stakes.

against s/k per Jumble - even if it were balanced out by a loser losing pegs, it is too easy for two people to pump up one person into however many exponentially large pegs they want.
