CAN YOU READ THE EXPOSURE?

Five quick questions to test what you learned.

Can one kong reveal an exact hand?
What changes after a second exposure?
How should you count jokers?

Choose A or B for each question before opening the answer guide in the comments.

One point each. Every explanation is a chance to learn.

Thank you, Diane—your question helped create this practice opportunity for the whole community! ❤️

SEE THE EXPOSURE.
KNOW WHAT TO CHECK NEXT.

This MGS checklist turns “I noticed their tiles” into a repeatable process.

Identify the group.
Compare complete hands.
Combine that player’s exposures.
Count naturals separately from jokers.
Consider what the information means for your next decision.

Start slowly during practice. Familiarity with your card will help the process become easier.

Save this reference for your next practice session.

Inspired by Diane’s thoughtful question. Thank you for helping our beginner community learn! ❤️

THEY EXPOSED A KONG.
NOW WHAT?

Diane asked a thoughtful question: once you notice someone’s exposure, what are you actually supposed to DO with that information?

Thank you, Diane! This lesson is for everyone who has wondered the same thing. ❤️

Start with the exact tile, suit and group size. Then check which complete hands on your current card could accommodate that exposure.

When that player exposes another group, look for possibilities that fit BOTH groups together.

Then consider your next decision:
➡️ How close is your own hand?
➡️ What might that opponent need?
➡️ How late is the game?

You don’t have to identify their exact hand immediately. Narrowing the possibilities can help you make a more informed decision.

And remember: two natural 5 Dots plus two jokers account for only TWO natural 5 Dots.

Save this lesson and practice with your card beside you.

BEFORE YOU CHOOSE A HAND: SAVE THIS CHECKLIST.

Recognizing the numbers is a start. Understanding the full hand is your next step.

Use this checklist with your current official NMJL card:

✅ Check the required groups.
✅ Read the parentheses.
✅ Understand the suits and Dragons.
✅ Find X or C.
✅ Name the missing tiles.
✅ Check where Jokers may legally help.

You don’t need to study every line at once.

Choose one hand. Work through it carefully. Ask about anything you cannot explain yet.

BEFORE YOU CHOOSE A MAHJONG HAND, CHECK THESE 3 THINGS.

Ever spotted familiar numbers on the card and thought, “That’s my hand!”… then noticed the parentheses?

Welcome to MAHJONG 101, Part 2: READ BEFORE YOU COMMIT.

Today’s three habits:

4️⃣ READ THE WHOLE LINE
Check each required group, the suit relationships, and every instruction in parentheses.

And remember: red ink on the card does not automatically mean Craks.

5️⃣ CHECK X OR C
X allows legal exposures before Mah Jongg. You do not have to expose.

C means the hand stays concealed until Mah Jongg. You may still claim the winning non-Joker discard to declare Mah Jongg immediately.

6️⃣ NAME YOUR GAPS
Compare the tiles you hold with the exact hand you’re trying to build.

For example: if your target requires a pair of 7 Bams and you hold one, you still need another 7 Bam. A Joker cannot complete that pair.

👉 YOUR PRACTICE:
Open your current official card. Choose ONE hand and explain:

• What groups does it require?
• Which suits will you use?
• Is it X or C?
• Which exact tiles are missing?

Work through unfamiliar details with a teacher or learning partner.

What would help you most: parentheses, colors, X/C, or identifying missing tiles? 👇

YOUR NEW PLAYER STARTER CHECKLIST

Learning Mahjong can feel like trying to remember everything at once.

Give yourself a smaller goal.

Before your next game, practice:

✅ Naming your tiles.
✅ Sorting them so you can see what you hold.
✅ Keeping your current official card beside you.

Use this checklist to spot what you already know—and choose ONE thing to practice next.

An unchecked box simply shows you where to spend a little more time.

SAVE this for your next learning session, and SHARE it with someone getting started.

What’s your next practice habit? 👇

NEW TO MAHJONG? START WITH THESE 3 HABITS.

Before you worry about finding the perfect hand, get comfortable with what’s in front of you.

Welcome to Part 1 of our MAHJONG 101 series: START WITH THE BASICS.

1️⃣ LEARN TILE NAMES
For numbered tiles, practice saying the number AND suit.

“5 Dot” tells you much more than “a five.” A 5 Dot, 5 Bam and 5 Crak are three different tiles.

2️⃣ SORT YOUR TILES
Try separating Dots, Bams and Craks, then arranging each suit from low to high.

Keep the other tiles easy to find. Notice repeats. This gives your eyes a simpler place to start.

3️⃣ USE THE CURRENT CARD
Keep your official 2026 National Mah Jongg League card beside you.

You can look at it while you learn. You do not need to memorize every line before getting started!

👉 YOUR PRACTICE:
Name five tiles, organize your practice tiles, and open your card.

Then choose ONE habit to work on at your next game.

Which feels hardest right now: tile names, sorting, or understanding the card? Tell us below. 👇

SAVE this lesson and SHARE it with your learning partner.

OVERTHINKING YOUR MAHJONG HAND?
10 STEPS TO GET OUT OF YOUR HEAD

You check the card. Change your mind. Check again.
Suddenly, every tile feels important.

Try this routine at your next game:

1️⃣ TAKE ONE BREATH.
Give yourself a moment to look at what you actually have.

2️⃣ ORGANIZE YOUR RACK.
Group tiles so you can spot pairs, repeated numbers and useful connections.

3️⃣ START WITH YOUR STRONGEST CLUSTER.
Which tiles already work together? Build your search around those.

4️⃣ NARROW YOUR OPTIONS.
Compare two realistic directions first. Searching the entire card repeatedly can leave you more confused.

5️⃣ READ THE COMPLETE HAND.
Check the suits, group sizes, parentheses and X or C before committing.

6️⃣ COMPARE WHAT’S MISSING.
A hand with more matching tiles isn’t automatically easier. Notice missing singles and pairs, too.

7️⃣ GIVE EACH TILE A JOB.
Does it support your main direction, a realistic alternative or neither?

8️⃣ REASSESS WHEN THE EVIDENCE CHANGES.
A useful draw, an exposure or unavailable tiles may justify another look. Doubt alone doesn’t require a fresh search.

9️⃣ CHECK BEFORE YOU CALL.
Confirm that the exposure fits your intended hand. Any later change of direction must still fit your exposures.

🔟 REVIEW ONE DECISION AFTERWARD.
Ask, “What would I try differently?” Give yourself one lesson to carry into the next game.

🀄️ MGS CHEAT CODE:
ORGANIZE → NARROW → CHECK → DECIDE.

You don’t need certainty about every future tile to make a thoughtful decision now.

Save this for your next game. Which step would help you most?

NEW TO MAHJONG? LET’S BUILD GOOD HABITS TOGETHER.

You learn the tile names… then someone mentions the Charleston, exposures and parentheses. Suddenly, there’s a lot to remember.

This Friday through Sunday, Mahjong Gangster Squad is breaking it down into five easy-to-follow MAHJONG 101 lessons:

1️⃣ START WITH THE BASICS
Know your tiles and get organized.

2️⃣ READ BEFORE YOU COMMIT
Understand what the card is asking.

3️⃣ CHOOSE WITH PURPOSE
Build a plan from the tiles you actually hold.

4️⃣ PAY ATTENTION TO THE TABLE
Learn what to notice before making your next decision.

5️⃣ FINISH WITH GOOD HABITS
Check your hand and learn from each game.

Each lesson introduces THREE useful habits—with a simple way to practice.

You don’t need to master all 15 this weekend. Choose one. Practice it. Build from there.
