Although this is the Chinese version, this still has helped me a lot with the Japanese version in Yakuza/Judgement. I still don't know enough to win a game yet, even after watching countless different guides, but I feel my knowledge has increased greatly with this video in particular.

When I first learned Hong Kong mahjong some years ago, I was taught that if I can only play one suit at a time meaning I'm not allowed to mix the suits in one game. Also, once I've decided on which suit to play, I must decide on whether I want to chi or pong with that suit as I can only choose one or the other. This forces the player to stratagise from the start by observing the tiles discarded from the other players and also to mask their own moves and try to mislead others.

Question: When someone makes a 'pong', they discard a tile so they have 13 again. Now, is it still their turn? Or is it the person on the right's turn now? Also, my set doesn't have animal tiles :/ do you need the animal tiles and flowers to play this style? Very nice video! Looking forward to seeing the scoring system video!
@MrMojojojojojojo3 жыл бұрын
To answer your question, once a player calls a pong and throws his tile, it’s the next person’s turn (the one on his right). Animal tiles are only applicable for singaporean style mahjong; most mahjong styles do not have animal tiles, so unless you want to play singaporean rules, it is okay if your set does not have them.

@mahjong10194 жыл бұрын
Thanks! Usually a box of mahjong there could be 4 blanks, 4 clown and 4 red chinese character 'fei' tiles. They are used like a wild card, they can be any card. They can act as any card apart from animal and flower tiles. It is illegal to discard them while playing. Depending on the house rules, often these tiles are not included when playing.

When is it aloud to pong, kang or chi from the discarded pile? 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?

How many tiles shall dead part contain?

1. The animal and flowers tile are for points (which will be explained further in future videos) 2. There is no way that could happen: When a player shouts 'pong' it means that the player has 2 identical tiles and a similar one has been discarded by another player. Since there are only 4 identical tiles of each tile in every deck, it is not possible to have 2 players shouting pong at the same time
