How to Choose a Winning Hand in American Mahjong | Ep. 4: Too Many Options — Narrowing It Down

This practice rack could fit multiple sections on the NMJL — how do you decide on a mahjong hand when there are too many options? Sometimes lots of Jokers and Flowers on the deal can actually make choosing a hand more difficult.

In this walkthrough:

  • Organizing a cluttered opening hand
  • Evaluating 3+ possible sections
  • Narrowing down systematically
  • Using Charleston passes to eliminate weaker choices
  • Locking in the final hand

A must-watch for anyone who feels overwhelmed at the start of a game. Follow along and then try this at home!
