    As a majiong player they are missing very key detail;
    There are three sets of 10 numbers from bamboo pancakes and the characters.
    You also collect 4 sets of 4 tiles at the beginning of the game
    When you restart a game you will build 2 layers stacked above each other with 18 tiles in each layer
    You rotate to be the first person.leader and you draw first, and roll the dice. The dice determines which layer of tiles we will start off from. Once you have collected the tile you then make your first move. After that regularly you take one and throw it into the pile in the middle.

    My great grandmother, aunts, and uncles would always play mahjong downstairs in the basement. Every time I visited my grandmother's house I would hear the clinking and rolling of the tiles. Then after every round, I would hear them mix them all up. I never asked them what the game was or how to play it (because I thought it was an "old people's" game), but now I know!

    This video didn't include some other information that is pretty important. Although the best way to learn is by actually playing it, I'll put down some additional info below. If it's confusing, just ask and I can clarify.
    You don't need 4 people to play every time. You can also play with three, or even two, but it's a lot more fun to play with 4.
    You can 'pong' anytime when someone drops a tile, but you can only 'chi' if the tile you need is dropped by the person before you.
    You don't roll the dice to decide who goes first (or at least, that's how I know it). You roll it to determine how many tiles you skip.
    When you 'gong', you put the tiles down and pick another tile from the group of tiles that you skipped at the beginning (^).
    When you 'chi' and 'pong', you must put the tiles down, face up.
    When you draw a tile and get a 'gong', you can choose to put them face up or face down when putting them down.
    If you 'gong' from someone else's tile, you must put it face up.
    There are 3 main groups of tiles and 1 group of special ones: Circles, numbers, and sticks. Then special.
    For the special group, it is impossible to 'chi', but it is possible to 'pong' or 'gong'.
    The way 'chi' works is that it needs three tiles of the same group in consecutive order.
    For example, you have circle 5 and circle 7. The person before you puts out a circle 6. You can 'chi' their tile, but you lose your turn to draw from the center.
    The little birdie is not a special tile. It may seem strange, but it's actually the 1 of the sticks group.
    Every time you draw a tile, 'chi', 'pong', or 'gong', you must put out one of your tiles.

    There are still certain rules not explain here in 2.5 minutes. Some tiles can pick up by certain players when is discarded depend on the set and who is more authorize to pick up discarded tiles if more than one player need that same pieces. Also! the player who discarded the tiles that help one of its opponents to win that game has to pay a full or double price while the other two only pay half of its amount. If a player win the game by getting the tiles off the set, then everyone has to pay the full amount.

Life is to enjoy, laugh, communicate and have a connection with someone special who has a zest for life and all things in it. I like to be active, and I tend to find the humor in life. It's my feeling that people need adventure, laughter, and passion... Let's talk and see where life takes us.

      There's way too many variations in Asia.
      But basically a short run down is that there are points we call them " Tai ".
      If you have no flowers or animals you have 0 points. You can't win the game like this. Either you wait until a flower comes to you, or you can form patterns.
      The most basic pattern is called " Peng Hu ". Basically you can only form patterns that are in ascending order. So 4,5,6 or 3,4,5. And you must have a pair of tiles that we call an eye.
      You cannot have 3 of the same or you cannot game.
      Extra restrictions are, your eyes can't be the direction tiles that are your wind or the general wind.
      Okay this is complicated but every round there is a " wind " associated with it. It's either east, south, west, or north. If you form 3 of a kind with that win, it's automatically 1 point. If you get 4, everyone pays you.
      And the place you're seated at determines your direction too. The dealer is east, and going anti clockwise, south, west, north.
      Another restriction with Peng Hu is that if you want to end the game eating someone else's tile, it can't be the middle
      For example, if you have
      4 and 6 bamboo and you're waiting for 5 to game, you can only win by taking it yourself you can't win by eating others.
      The only way is if you have 5 and 6 bamboo then you can win by eating 4 or 7.
      Peng Hu gives you 4 points immediately. If you win by yourself everyone pays double. If someone gives it to you, the person pays double.

    1.What happnes when you “kang” and left with a last tile?
    2. Can you only Kang when a player throw from the left of you or can you do it wherever like pong?
    3. When is it aloud to pong, kang or chi? Is it right after the leader throw his/her first tile at the start of the game or is it when every one has picked up their first tile from the first draw wall and tossed their first tile?

    • @brentrussell7455
      @brentrussell7455 3 года назад +1

      1. After calling a kang, you draw an extra tile to make the remaining tiles in your hand the same as if you had called pong. Even though kang has 4 tiles, it is treated as a 3 tile pong for the purposes making the total number of melds required to win and when counting the total number of tiles in your hand.
      2. You can kang off any player's discard just like pong. However that is only if you already have 3 matching tiles closed in your hand. If you have already called pong on 3 tiles, you can kang the 4th tile if you draw it yourself, but not if another player discards it.
      3. Pong and kang can be called for any discard from any player (with the caveat for kang mentioned in part 2). Chi can only be called from a discard of the player before you (to your left). The calls can start immediately from the very first discard. Although there may be particular house or regional rules that the players agree on that change this.
