Academic Foundation

Mahjong Made Clear by Preneet Singh is a modern and comprehensive guide to understanding the fundamental structure of Mahjong, designed for both beginners and experienced players.

Rather than focusing on a single set of rules, this book explores the underlying principles shared across major Mahjong systems, including Hong Kong, Riichi (Japanese), MCR, American, Goulash, and various community variations.

With 50 carefully organized Structural Hands, practical scoring systems, clear diagrams, and step-by-step guidance, the book helps readers understand how winning hands are constructed, recognize patterns, and make informed decisions during gameplay.

Readers will learn how to:

• Understand the fundamental structure of Mahjong rules and winning hands.

• Identify and use melds, pairs, chows, pungs, and kongs.

• Recognize patterns and develop effective playing strategies.

• Understand practical scoring systems.

• Build winning hands with greater clarity and confidence.

• Adapt to different Mahjong systems and playing styles.

Drawing on Preneet Singh's experience playing Mahjong across Hong Kong, India, and the United States, Mahjong Made Clear offers a cross-cultural perspective on the game. Its accessible explanations make Mahjong easier to understand and enjoyable for players of different experience levels.
