Thanks for making this video. I’m brand new to Riichi and this gave me a lot more perspective on calling riichi.
I understood none of this
Erm... what the sigma🤓
This example is basically daburu riichi, but worth 1 han less. Something that happens in <1% of matches is irrelevant for beginners. In 90% cases riichi is good, that's it. Even here it's not bad. Maybe you lose in win rate, but there is also a chance to get 1st via noten penalty. A chance of no luck with transformation should also be considered. I had a 1-sided wait on a middle tile with 3 of them in open pon. One of my stupidest riichi, but chankan was achieved.
Actually, you should have call riichi. When you call riichi, other players will usually drop which gives you more turns. If other players proceed with their hands, they also have better chances of winning. With riichi you force others to step back. With ryanmen machi, you should always assume on tsumo, never ron.
I riichi every time. Riichi is the heart of riichi mahjong. The excitement, the terror. It is what I live for.
Good video! I'm super new to mahjong and MS, and I (like a lot of newer players) seem to have a hair trigger for riichi. It almost makes me think that I have already won and it's just a matter of getting my tile. Similar to pocket aces in poker. On paper it is great, but not invincible
make more of these pls :3
Good video, would love to see more!
mhm yes, Gamble
There are two types of mahjong players. Those who calculate and those who operate by vibes.
That's me I'm vibes if my pp doesn't get a jingle I don't touch the tiles
Vibes and flow are real!!!
New player, really liked this video. I hope you make more at some point
thx that was rly hgelpful
I am currently Expert 3 and I think "it depends" is not a bad answer :D
Great video. Would love to see your take on other Mahjong Riichi concepts and strategy.
Hi, are you planning to do more videos?
Hi there! You shouldn't toss 6s first in this situation. There are no treats from your opponents, and with such a hand, you must simply maximise your chances. Furthermore, 1 after 6 from the hand is a sign of tempai in OTHER suits, and 6 after 1 is just a sign of improvement. Finally, your strategic analysys is not complete. You could move riichi right after tempai there, and both toimen and shimocha never go full-save. Toimen - with obvious reasons. Shimocha - because most of your tsumos moves him on 4th place. Even kamicha os vulnerable, because with 3 nottens you still win :) On the other side, your damaten after second tempai is good. Do your best taking master - and move Tenhou :)
What does this mean to a new player? Eli5
@aaronh678 I've only been playing a few months but this is what I think this means 1. Discarding 1s (1 of bamboo) instead of 6s at 4:15 increases tile acceptance, and since there are no obvious threats of fast/strong hands from other opponents it's better to discard 1s. 2. Mahjong soul allows you to see visually if a player discards the tile that they just drew or if they discarded a tile from within their hand. With discard order it's suspicious discarding 6s and then 1s from your hand, since it's weird to hold onto a weak 1s longer than a strong 6s which has high tile acceptance. (I wouldn't worry about this point as a new player, only really strong players pay attention to this and this is only a small sign) 2. It's still not a bad idea to riichi on a 5s wait in this situation since across opponent and right opponent are both at risk of ending the game in 4th, so they will likely push their hand even if riichi is called. This means if 5s is useless to them they will likely discard it rather than playing defensively. Left opponent is also at risk of losing 1st, so they may push their hand as well.
Thanks man, keep up the good work! Just started mahjong and that was very instructive
