Beginner Mahjong Series: Objective of the Game
What is the objective in American Mahjong??
You’re trying to match the tiles in your hand to one of the lines/hands listed on the National Mahjong Jongg League (NMJL) Card. These cards are released by the league every April and list all of the hands for the year. While you don’t have to play the current year card, you do need to be playing all from the same card at the table.
We sometimes play older cards for fun and vintage birth year cards for birthdays!!
We will go over how to play the NMJL Card in the next part of these Beginner Series videos. Drop us a comment of anything else you want to see!!
