Playing a Hand

Winning & dead hands

How a hand ends: in a win, a wall game, or a dead hand.

Beginner · lesson 23 of 25

When your fourteenth tile completes an exact hand on the card, you declare Mahjong and win. If the wall runs out first, it's a wall game, which is a draw. And if your rack can no longer make any legal hand, it's a dead hand.

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