## Description

The essential companion for the dedicated Mah Jong player who also enjoys the social aspect of the game. Since the arrival on the market of Patricia Thompson and Betty Maloney's two previous books, The Game of Mah Jong Illustrated and Improve Your Mah Jong , a wide range of hands from many parts of the world has been sent to them. In this player’s companion, the authors have put together a cross-filed reference guide where more than 120 hands, illustrated in color, can be quickly identified by following the flip-top headings on each page. A full synopsis of each hand is included. The extra hands give an international flavor to the book, adding new interest and challenges.

Review: THE MAH JONG PLAYER'S COMPANION. EXCELLENT!! - THE MAH JONG PLAYER'S COMPANION is an excellent book for beginners and beyond. All hands are shown in colour making it easy to understand as well as it is indexed so you can look up hands that can be made from tiles you have been dealt. It includes scoring and strategies on how to place your tiles so others don't predict your hand. It includes organising a tournament and answers questions to the rules of the game. The index is divided conveniently into RUNS, CHOWS, PAIRS, WINDS, DRAGONS, BAMBOO CHARACTER AND CIRCLE SUITS, and many more. I would highly recommend this book for new comers to Mah Jong.
Review: A great way to learn new ways to win. - I just learned to play Mah Jong this summer. This book has helped me learn several more "hands". The pictures are a great help and even some of my long-playing friends have learned more by using this book. I highly recommend this book.

I just learned to play Mah Jong this summer. This book has helped me learn several more "hands". The pictures are a great help and even some of my long-playing friends have learned more by using this book. I highly recommend this book.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect!
*by E***D on September 2, 2017*

The Mah jong group I play with in FL uses this book. Since it is out of print, the price is twice what is listed on the book itself. However, unlike the National Maj Jong League cards that are $7 each year (as it changes each April), you buy this book once only, and use it year after year. It contains 64 pages of possible hands you can aim for, with rules and helpful suggestions in the back several pages.
