I am hoping that he will grow out of the random wish phase.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nOur team was not getting many points at all from the cards.  After five hands, we only had 95 of the 500 points (19%).  And after nine hands, we had 200 of the 900 points (22%).  What saved us was that we were able to set both Adam and Mike&#8217;s Tichu calls which caused them to break even in Tichu points.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nFor Mike&#8217;s desperation Grand Tichu call, he had 23468PDX.  Ed had three Aces and I had one.  Which was sad given the fact that he also had the MahJong and couldn&#8217;t pass it to me (since I would wish for an Ace out of Ed&#8217;s hand).  And even with all of the Aces, Mike still went out!
