\nI was lucky today because we had enough players for Tichu today. This game will certainly be the last lunch game of the year.\n<\/p>\n

\nOn the first hand, I called Tichu and made it. After I made it, I learned just how lucky I was. Adam could have played over my straight. And Ed had a bomb! My Jedi mind powers were strong this hand…\n<\/p>\n

\nI had an interesting hand later on. I was passed two bombs. I had 2222 5555 Mahjong Ace Qxxx (three lowish singles). I was seriously considering calling Tichu. I probably spent five minutes agonizing over it. But in the end, I did not. I know my Ace is not a winner and I could probably not play one of my singles before having to play the ace and\/or bombs to get the lead. I would have needed help from my partner to keep playing singles to me.\n<\/p>\n

\nYou can see where the point swing happens in this game. Fortunately, our team stayed ahead the whole game…\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
