At the mahjong table, the most frustrating moment is to think that you have a card, but then be pointed out by someone else after pushing down the card."What happened to Mahjong?”。The so-called "how to play" means that it does not comply with the rules of Hu cards but mistakenly thinks Hu cards. Not only will it not be possible to win, but it may also be punished. Many novices and even veterans make mistakes inevitably. This article will systematically sort out the common types, reasons and ways to avoid it, so that you can stay away from embarrassment and become a mahjong master.

What is Mahjong?

The meaning of "Zhihu" in Mahjong terminology isWrong Hu card that does not meet the Hu card conditions。Players may mistakenly think that they have won the cards because of wrong card types, wrong numbers, misunderstanding rules, etc. Once it is identified as a player, the bureau cannot play cards, or at most, it will have to pay other players, or even affect the progress of the game. Therefore, it is crucial to understand the common situations of Yi Hu.

Common type 1: incomplete card type

The most basic Hu card type is "four pairs of straight or carved cards plus a pair of generals", with a total of 14 cards. A lot of trouble is caused by incomplete card structure, such as:

  • There are only 13 cards, and if there is one less card, Hu cards will be knocked down;
  • One more card becomes 15 cards, which does not match the number of Hu cards;
  • The trump card is not a pair, but a single card or three cards;
  • There is insufficient number of straight or strokes, such as only three pairs plus one pair, and one pair is missing.

Such mistakes often occur when playing cards nervously or quickly. It is recommended to silently count the cards and check the structure before playing cards.

Common Shampoo Type 2: Does not meet the rules for special card types

In addition to the basic card types, many places also have special hu methods for mahjong, such as seven pairs, uniform, and touch hu. If a player mistakenly believes that his card matches a special card type, but in fact does not meet the conditions, it will also cause trouble. For example:

  • Seven pairs require seven pairs, but the player has six pairs plus one chip, and mistakenly thinks that it is also seven pairs;
  • All colors are required to be of the same color, but mixed with plates or another color;
  • All requirements for Danping Hu are carved, but one pair is straight.

There are many rules and details for special card types, so be sure to confirm them clearly before playing.

Common type three: confusion between listening and playing cards

During the card listening stage, some players excitedly push the cards when they see that the cards played by others are the ones they want to play, but in fact they don't really have the cards. For example:

  • I heard "side Zhang" or "embedded Zhang", but mistakenly thought that any one of them could be played;
  • I listen to "single fishing general", but what others play is not a general card;
  • I listened to "listening from multiple sides", but I made a mistake in calculation and thought that a certain card could play, but actually it couldn't.

When listening to cards, you should be clear about which cards you have, not based on your feelings.

Why does Mahjong Jiao appear?

  3. overanxious for quick results: When I saw Hu Pai opportunities, I was impulsive and didn't check carefully.
  4. Newbies lack of experience: Not proficient in card type combination and easy to misjudge.

After understanding the reasons, we can avoid trouble in a targeted manner.
