To clarify, So we only conclude 4p is safe because he discarded 6p before 3p? If it was 3p before 6p then possibly he can have a shape like 345566 waiting on 47p. Also if we assume 4p is safe then automatically we also assume 1p + 7p suji is safe? The 5p discard is the discard that reveals 5aka then I assume. Please let me know if I understood all of that correctly 😅

I just got to the Jade room last month and I have been struggling to find consistent success. I am exactly that player who is “too anxious to deal in” as you mentioned in this video, and I have been randomly recommended your channel through the TH-cam algorithm. It feels like a gold mine! I am going to watch all your videos to learn and improve my play. 😊 thank you for the awesome educational content

Great content and channel thank you :)

This is one of my favorite aspects of mahjong. Finding unlikely allies in a game with otherwise such little direct interaction is insanely cool!

Very instructive example, everything was clear and the explanations were concise. Great video!

You're the Feng 7D book guy, now I'll have to binge watch all your videos

Your videos are awesome!

very insightful video!

Thanks for this detailed explanation!

i discovered mahjong like a week ago, depth of this game is so immeasurable

What does musuji 23/78 and 456 mean? Does it mean that I don't sakigiri those tiles as a dealer if they are not suji against someone?

I found that nobody had answered for the last quiz yet. As Non-Dealer, Sakigiri double musuji 456 should be corresponded to turn 5~14, I suppose. So the answer is from 5th turn, right?

it is also a thing in Hearthstone (even more annoying there)

This video has been enlightening. Thanks for making this channel!

Why use naga instead of mortal?

I'm Dan 2 / Master I, and I get humbled so hard by strong dama hands from players that are 2/ 3+ ranks better than me. Mostly dama sanshokus 😅. While I personally much often riichi to try to get that haneman (optimism bias I guess)

Great video once again!

Could you elaborate on why the aka5 78 p would not be realistic? (top right shape) 😅 I managed to understand the explanations for the rest of the shapes

The reasoning of this videos is really bad, which is rather ironic. You do not use formal fallacies for probabilistic considerations.

These discard reading videos are very interesting (and hard lol). I see how it's very likely that they have another 5p in hand, but I'm wondering if it has to be aka. - Is there a situation where tedashi here would be correct for them if they just drew another regular 5p? I know it's usually bad but since we're able to read the discards here then maybe? - Is it possible for them to have drawn into two 5p and kept a 3455 aryanmen?

That's a pretty nice video concept for intermediate players. Well done! Haneman Hunters are cheering for MrFeng!!!!

I'd love to understand discards to this level. This is like magic to me. Looking forward to seeing more.

Awesome case study. Please keep making videos like this!

Finally found the video so I can get better in this game

Very good video! Straight to the point, good content and useful information :)

Holy shit, is a cutthroat world out there on top ranked mahjong.

Very refreshing content on learning Mahjong, thank you !

Thank you. Learned a lot.

Saint? I learned scoring before even getting to ranked games. Aotenjou is my favorite system, by the way.

Dora dragon is such a pain to have. It's both dangerous to discard and (usually) inefficient to keep. Even with pair of them, it's valuable, but the chance to actually win the hand is not that high. Triplet though is a completely different story. Safe to discard, easier to win, very valuable.

very insightful video!

I think a good point to note is that those sakigiri tables shouldn't be followed religiously. There are always other factors that affect sakigiri, such as point situation (if you have a huge lead, sakigiri more, if you're 4th with a big gap, sakigiri less), wall reading, danger levels of individual tiles (e.g. because of ura suji, flush hands). I think it's a good general guideline to follow, but thinking "did I make a mistake by cutting 5s one turn too early according to the EV charts even though it seemed dangerous?" isn't a valuable use of time.

From 5:44 i realise the Sakigiri formula should be change in efficiency % instead, or (1-efficiency %) so please note.

Great video!

I think there is a typo at 2:54, medium should be no safe tile.

Based.

Is the analysis any different if the 3 discarded tiles are before or after riichi? After riichi a one chance could naturally form due to genbutsu, while before they are just unneeded tiles.

I'm a little confused on the efficiency here? Pei, Haku, and Chun are both once discarded, shouldn't we keep 69 or 14 shapes? 3 pairs don't seem to be enough for chiitoi.
