Barely made the WRL cut with 16/16 😅
Also the only one with streak start in the double digits. I guess p2w was too strong 😆 Hopefully the finals in January go well

On an airplane to California tomorrow and finally have a chance to read. Which one should I read first? So grateful to the @WorldRiichi publishing team for their hard work bringing these books to English readers!
Often times don't post about other people but this achievement is just too amazing to just not mention. Congrats to my good friend Skye "sci" Chen for doing the unthinkable on her second WSOP attempt! The A10 hero call just shows me how good she is at reading others! – at San Francisco, CA
Skye Chen Wins Event #68: $1,000 Ladies No-Limit Hold'em Championship ($194,630)

built an interactive guide to teach you the basics of mahjong ! 🀄
it includes rulesets from different regions (hk and taiwan for now) with a few interactive elements to illustrate mahjong concepts. more demos in thread, and a bit about the tools i used to build this.
the one thing this guide can’t really capture is how social mahjong is -- mahjong tables are never silent ! they’re full of overlapping conversations and the constant click-clack of acrylic tiles stacking and shuffling against each other. come to @modal's mahjong night tmrw to experience that part for yourself : )

Played at the Rochester Riichi Open this past weekend and ended at 13th out of 36. Had a very big +74.9 first day 1, but started day 2 with a 4th and could not reach back to top 4. Still had a fun time playing with everyone! Thanks to the RIT Mahjong Club for hosting this event!

こんな感じで自分の麻雀検討ポストを英語で読めるようにしていただきました〜！ありがとうございます😊
Plans for Cloudy Mahjong in 2026!
-Translate mahjong books!
-Posting/translating mahjong tips and snippets!
-Continuing to release Learning From Pros!
I also want to annouce that I have received permission from @amaan_0215 (27th Tenhoui) to translate his posts/tips from now on!
Translation: I was about to mindlessly discard 4m, but the deal-in rate on 1m is low enough that I just tsumogiri'd (drew and discarded) it instead. If I can pull the 5m or 8m and then discard 2m, that path seems to have a lower overall deal-in rate.
