Mahjong

Got my first taste of mahjong last weekend at a dinner party and have to say it was a lot of fun. I don't entirely understand the all the rules (there are a lot) and I had some trouble deciphering the Chinese characters on the tiles, but I had a good time. It's kind of like playing poker, but with 16 tiles instead of 5 cards. The goals is create 4 sets of three tiles and pair. I can't even begin to explain the rules, but I hope to improve my game while I'm here.
