American Mah Jongg Lesson Fundamentals 10 Phase II Pick and Discard (mock card)

Описание: Mah jongg is the 4-player Chinese tile game that took America by storm in the 1920s. A hand of American mah jongg is divided into two phases, Phase I is The Charleston and Phase II is the Pick and Discard. The purpose of the pick and discard phase of the game is first and foremost to complete a winning hand for yourself. If, for whatever reason, you are not able to win, your purpose should be to block a winning hand for your opponents. In this video, I act as each players and demonstrate the process of the pick & discard phase of the game. Strategy during this phase of the game will be in the next playlist.

For American mah jongg, I highly recommend White Swan sets from Gammon Village. Here are links to sets in a hard case https://goo.gl/vSAJHS and a set in a soft case https://goo.gl/pi8DwP.

You can find the mock American mah jongg card in the downloads section of this wiki article with other helpful tips and tools: https://mahjlife.com/wiki/american-ma...
The mock American Mah Jongg card is timeless and generic. This way, no matter when someone new to the game watches the video, they will have a stable reference as they learn how to play the game.
