\nWell, I made two mistakes today. The first was not correctly valuing my hand against Adam’s first Tichu call. I strongly suspected I could stopped him. And I should have called Tichu as well.\n<\/p>\n

\nWhen Mike called Grand Tichu and Ed passed me the Mah Jong, I made the standard wish for an ace. However, Adam immediately bombed and led a single. Which forced me to play an ace. Ace wish rejected in your face!\n<\/p>\n

\nMy second mistake was amusing. It was the last hand and Ed picked up all of his cards. So I blindly called Grand Tichu. I picked up the Dragon, Phoenix, Mah Jong, an Ace, and other cards. So it was a pretty good hand. I passed Mike a 2. I didn’t wish for the 2, but instead wished for an ace hoping to improve my hand slightly. Towards the end, when I played a pair of aces, Mike bombed with 2s and then went out. I would have made it except for that bomb!\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
