Arranging Your Hand

Organize tiles to see possible shapes.

Concept

Do not discard automatically.

After drawing, pause and evaluate. Did the tile complete your hand? If yes, you may declare self-draw win if the hand is legal and has enough fan.

Did the tile give you a kong? You may be able to declare it. Otherwise, choose a discard that moves your hand forward.
