    A few of these hands are in the wrong category.

    Numbers Racket is a DOUBLE LIMIT.

    There are quite a few more errors on this page as well. It would take me too long to name them all.

    I tutor Mahjong at my local club on Wednesdays for new players.

    Nice try on the list though.

    Hi there,
    I play Mah Jong at the library and there is some controversy about the order of the suits in the Crazy Chows hand. Do you know if the suit order need to be repeated for each of the 4 chows? The odds of completing the chows are much higher if they follow
    random order in each set. I rather prefer the more challenging same suit order option.
    Looking forward to your reply,
    MIAP.

    Good morning,
    In the All Honor hand with pungs/kongs of 1's, 9's , winds and dragons can the pair to complete the hand be a pair of 1 or a pair of 9? These are also considered honors.
    Thank you for your answer,
    Marie
