2446 Mah Jongg 101: Learn the Basics
Multi-week in-person | This class is completed
We're going to have fun learning how to play mah jongg: to understand the tiles, game card, various hands, and strategies to win or at least play defensively. No gambling involved! You need to purchase the 2022 mah jongg card before the first class (NationalMahjonggLeague.org; large-print card advised) and read the material that will be sent in advance of the first class. It will make more sense as you learn to play. Suggested reading: "A Beginner's Guide to American Mah Jongg" by Elaine Sandberg.
Moderator: Jerri Roberts has been playing mah jongg weekly since she took her first class at OLLI several years ago. It's fun, frustrating, rewarding, and addictive, requiring some skill and lots of luck! And it's great for the little gray cells.
