Defense

Discarding against two exposures

Playing around a hand you can name.

Advanced · lesson 6 of 21

Once a player has two exposures you can usually list the hands they might hold. Take that list, work out which tiles those hands still need, and treat every one of them as unavailable to you.

That is often a short list, four or five tiles, and avoiding it costs you much less than you would expect. Most of your rack is not on it.

Note

Watch the suit slots. Many hands allow any suit, so an exposure in Bams may mean the same hand in Craks is what they actually want next.

Reading ahead is fine. The path takes lessons in order, so this one ticks off once you get here.
