They played great! I like such long sessions of games, it’s convenient to watch on the road =) Here you have this set of tiles that is voluminous, almost crooked, when you mix the tiles often turn on their sides. When the tiles have a back (for example, green) the flipped tiles are more noticeable. I want to know what kind of tiles you have? (#XX XXmm x XXmm x XXmm)

65/67mm x 27mm x 19-25mm and typically made of urea or melamine formaldehyde for durability. They were used in the traditional mahjong/tien gow gambling house. Since the tile is made of urea or melamine formaldehyde without any aryclic, it is not possible to make it with colour at the back. The size is large enough so it can stand up alone and difficult for cheating. Another comparable version is the Pai Gow tiles that you may find in any casino in the world, which is as thin as possible so four files can be hold in one hand to avoid being seen by others. The Tien Gow tiles would be difficult to source nowadays in the China market but some mainland Chinese or Hong Kong people produce it in batches. So it is still possible to buy it in Hong Kong. Retail price is around USD$60-80 per set. You may use green tiles which doesn't affect the game itself. Most importantly the tiles can easily be stood up for playing

@@MrVincentwong72 Understood! Thank you! )) In your videos I saw a set a little thinner and black. They can also stand on the table on their own. Good kit. It looked like 28# - 30#. And there was some interesting kit that looked like a homemade one. I ordered a set #16 - #18 for myself a long time ago, but they are thin. Tien Gow is not very convenient to play, but it is possible. And another set on mahjong tiles, I took especially for the game Bakhchen.
