>>14703844
I love starting as north. North always has the chance for a comeback. I feel if I start as the dealer, I'm doomed if the game gets to South 2 and I don't have the lead.
>>
>>14703562
Get ron'd even less.
>>
>>14703562
Get the lead in the first two rounds, no matter how small, and then snuff out all opposition with 1000 point hands. Do not riichi after you take the lead, if you deal in you won't have time to get it back.

If you couldn't get the lead early on: do you still have your dealer turn? If you do, start racking up honba. If you don't, you're probably screwed unless you can pull in a lot of dora. If you can't do that either, riichi and pray.

Mukoubuchi is a good manga that only has tonpuusens in it, they go over a few other strategies in it.

A card set.

>>14703562
Speed is paramount. In the first couple of rounds, don't be afraid to open up your hand, even if it means going kata-agari for tanyao or fanpai. If neither tanyao or fanpai are practical, go for maximum tile efficiency and riichi as soon as you can. Don't be too eager to break up penchan waits to keep isolated middles - early tenpai on a penchan is better than a late ryanmen.

Dama is preferable once you're in the lead, but contrary to what the other guy said, it's fine to riichi if you have to, but only if: a) your lead isn't already big enough (ie 8000 point gap); b) your lead isn't so small that it's practically irrelevant (ie less than 3000 point gap). In the former case you don't need to riichi, and in the latter, the 1000 point deposit makes it much easier for others to overtake you.

Every time I make a new account to have a fresh start, I get higher and higher before I plateau.

First one was like 300 games, 2dan R150. Second went up to 2dan R1700. Third one went up to 3dan R1960 in two weeks in 100 games. The problem is that I eventually play too aggressively and start tanking my stats. When I make a new account, I remember the basics and I play better or something.

This one is off to a good start so far.

It just felt bad looking at the replay. At least it was good folding practice.

The game was also closer than I'd like to admit since shimocha kept interrupting my hands while getting huge tsumos. So I was wondering where I could polish my game etc.
>>
>>14711614
There's nothing you can do about someone getting big tsumos and overtaking your lead that way. If it's late in the game you can try to push with fast hands but beyond that it's usually not worth the risk of dealing in. Let the other players take that risk for you.

If you're lucky, they'll bust someone out winning off each other, but in the worst case scenario where you get second because someone gets big tsumos, that's not bad at all.

A bit of advice. Aside from throwing out the dora, which was questionable by itself, with these point totals, you could have kept the dora and went into a quiet tenpai.

I had thought you were going for chitoi, and that hesitation after you riichi'd made me nearly certain you wouldn't throw the dora out and I would have to start making hard decisions. I'm glad I was wrong, but I'm confused as to why you did that. I don't want someone to become the next Gogo.

The only reason you're not winning as far as I can see from spectator mode is that lost you that hon-itsu on your first hand because you decided to not stick with your wait and changed to a worse one. I was amazed when that didn't work out for you.

Oh right, here's the tentative bracket. We'll most likely have to swap players around later on so we can match up schedules.

skskhktk has pulled out of the tournament, so unless someone else wants to join, I'll sub in for him myself and the top two of the other three will advance. Still haven't heard back from Mnog yet, so we may need another sub in that match.

No special rules, just regular Tenhou ari-ari. Two hanchan per match, the two players with the highest combined score advance to the next round.

I won't bother setting up a championship lobby. We'll probably just use 7447 or some other empty lobby. I'll let you know closer to the match.

It's quite amazing when you really think about it. Without the second kan's uradora, it wouldn't have been that big. And the 7pin for the second kan was the rinshan draw from the first kan. If it wasn't for the first kan, the second one would have never happened.

It doesn't matter here because it's baiman obviously, but I'm still trying to learn how to track fu. How is this 70?

+4 for the 4 pin set
=50

What did I miss?

>>14720583

It's a closed kan, so it's 32 fu. That totals to 66, which rounds up to 70.

Think Base 20, plus 10 for Close ron.

If you try to think 30 every time, you'll get fucked thinking about fu regarding open hands.

For what purpose would I post that screenshot if I wouldn’t riichi that myself? Are you even lesbian little girl?

>>14721472
What kind of hurr durr reply is that? The possibility of dealing into someone other’s hand persists until the hand is finished. The same goes for the assumptions how safe a particular tile is. Which is the real question, since >>14721450 states that 7s is safe.

>>
>>14722668
I don't know senpai, I don't play mahjong in real life so I never needed to.
>>
>>14722668
F, if you win with a 4 or a 7 sou you get an additional pinfu but if you win with the 5 sou you only get the tsumo and the iipekou.
>>
>>14722668
I don't remember what damaten tsumo is but I only see 2 han there for sure, so I will say F.
>>
>>14722668
F

Iipeikou
Menzen Tsumo
Dora

It's either a pin fu in which case it's 4 fu 20 han
or it isn't so it's 3 fu 30 han.
>>
>>14722668
Trick question, I lose anyways
>>
>>14722668
5200 hand, so answer is B. Don't forget about two extra fu from no-pinfu-tsumo, so 8+2+2 give 3han50fu.

Quarterfinals B2, featuring Doragan, San-san, Corak and trakss has been delayed and will no longer take place at 2am UTC. I'll let you guys know as soon as I've got a new time worked out.

Three han from tsumo, ippeikou and dora. Ends up being 4 han 20 fu if it wins on the 4 or 7 sou wait with Pinfu, otherwise it's 3 han 40 fu for the 5-8 sou wait.
Also using the formula is easier

I've been looking for local clubs and such, and sometimes you get local events and such but they're more focused on getting new players than providing decent opponents. Anime cons are usually good spots for that too.

>>14723924
Do you watch Houou's?
>>
>>14724234
I'd say watching some of the commentated pro mahjong on Youtube is good too, because if you understand japanese decently, you can get some insights into decisions the pro players make that you might not understand.

You weren't even aiming for second. If you aren't going to bother trying to win, at least punish someone who deals in.

>>14725003
Well, to be fair zheitny's only chance of moving on was overtaking 二階堂夢乃, who could have dealt into the dealer, so it was the correct move.
>>
>>14725003
He could still get second if someone else dealt into the dealer. I don't know why you're being so rough on him when winning with that hand wouldn't alter his placement at all.
>>
>>14725003
I was definitely trying to win. Taking a pinfu+aka ron would be giving up.

I needed a haneman tsumo or a mangan ron on 二階堂夢乃 to escape last. Just riichi pinfu wasn't going to do that. The best I could hope for was holding on for a 6 or 3p to at least give me tanyao or 二階堂夢乃 dealing into the dealer.
>>
>>14724985
>call ron

No, that's not how you play this game
>>
>>14721792
My bet is on Nishishi/わざ and mancoy/UNIVERSE to advance.
>>
>>14725019
I should have phrased the first comment better, I guess. I wasn't annoyed that you didn't take the 2000 point hand, I was annoyed that you didn't even make an attempt to get the mangan ron or haneman tsumo and instead sat there with pinfu hoping that 二階堂夢乃 would deal in and that the dealer wouldn't just win the whole hanchan. To me, it made more since to go down fighting and praying rather than just praying.

No one else put it down, and no one was discarding middle sou tiles. From my perspective it looked dangerous. I wanted to win at least one hand, couldn't do much because everyone was getting into tenpai hella fast especially in the east round. You're right though, I should've went for it.
>>
So, regarding QFB2 which was supposed to be earlier today but was delayed, the only time that matches the availability that everyone submitted is Sunday 2am UTC. We'll have to wait until next week (Sunday 14th Feb, 2am UTC) to have the match.

However, if at least two people are able to compromise on their schedules, we may be able to hold it during the week. Doragan, San-san, Corak and trakss, please let me know by Tuesday if you can compromise.

Just enter a game, and if you don't get a tenhou, quit.
Rinse and repeat.

San-san here. I can't really compromise for Monday, Tuesday, or Friday, given that I have an exam on Tuesday and a club meeting on Friday. Like what Doragon said, it depends on what the times would be.

If your hand is open, does throwing a 5 for a red 5 is worth when comes to points?
>>
>>14726292
Why wouldn't it be?
>>
>>14726299
Doesn't red give usually give more points ?
>>
>>14726305
Exactly?
Why would you keep your shitty normal 5 instead of calling on that red one if the hand is open already?

Unless it's an open yakuman

I have misread your answer, my bad. I'm a beginner I'm not used to rules with red tules and shit.

Corak here, my schedule is pretty much locked up during the week other than evenings/midnight because I have work. Anything will have to be UTC 0:00-7:00.

I could do the matches RIGHT NOW, but I have an event to attend 5 hours from now, so if this drags out we are going to have to push it back.

Also
Uradora was 7 sou

>>14726629

4 I guess. I switched back to my second-last account and started grinding on it again since I got tired of the huge luck modifiers in ippan. Back to R1818 and 600/1200 pts, at least.

>>14726693
Or rather the tile that came up was 7 sou, so the 8 sou was the ura dora.

It was the 8 sou, ball. The 8 sou would have ended you in tenpai and not made you deal into the obvious chin itsu.

what happens after north 4?
>>
>>14727339
As far as I know, there is no North round in Tenhou. It ends in West 4 with whatever positions the players have, regardless of whether someone has over 30K points.

>>14727325
I couldn't stop watching ball fuck up. It was physically painful, but I couldn't stop.

In a normal game I think it goes to dragon rounds. I don't know if Tenhou handles it.

Saw that scumbag R1939 7dan Sachi in the Joukyuu lobby trying to grind that last few R to Houhou.two games in a row

He placed last in the first one, first in the second one

Huh? What? Who?
>>
>>14727602
Just a random fella. I'm joking, he's probably not a scumbag. Just thought he should be playing in the Tokujou lobby instead.
>>
That feel when you don't place 1st for 16 games. Maybe I'm not cut out for mahjong.
>>
>>14727664
Richii mahjong isn't about placing first (but it is still the ideal position, yes). It's about avoiding last place.

This was pretty weird.
Why would you Ron on that when you could wait for the Yakuman and get the first place?
>>
>>14727861
He is currently 3rd and has a chance to not end up 4th. That alone is enough to ron there. Getting 2nd is a bonus. Tenhou is all about not placing 4th.
>>
>>14727877
That and I think most people probably would not discard a hatsu after seeing those two dragon pons. Some people don't give a fuck, though, I know.
>>
>>14727861
Because who the fuck would discard a hatsu there? All it takes is one person to block you and another person to go for tanyao only, and you're stuck at third, with a chance to drop into 4th.
>>
>>14727861
Better to get 2nd than to risk getting 4th if you're looking to climb ranks.

But there aren't any Hatsu out yet, the chances of self drawing is still high. with chances of people giving 0 fucks like the guy in the 4th place just something like >>14727908

I don't know, but I don't give a shit about ranks on Tenhou.

Here's the thing, you're working with more information because you can see other players' hands. He doesn't have that luxury; for all he knows, both Hatsu could be in the other player's hands.

Even if you assume that there are no Hatsu in anyone's hand and that you can still tsumo it, that chance is 2/30 or 1/15, which is 6%. The chance of him drawing it himself is only one fourth of that, an extremely meager 1.5%.

This is again, assuming both tiles are still alive in the dead wall. If one of them is in another player's hand, or in the dead wall, that chance drops to 1/30 or 3%, but again since he himself has to draw it, it's 1/4th of that, 0.75%.

The chance for self draw on the Hatsu is not high at all. Much, much less than the probability that another player will win before him.
>>
>>14727922
>the chance of self drawing is high
There are only two tiles left, and chances are one may be in the dead wall. It's a terrible wait. If someone draws it, 9 times out of 10 they are going to hold onto a live sangenpai if two sets were already called. It doesn't matter how big your hand is if you never complete it.

This game was so silly, aha. Not even mad I came second.

Kamicha got fucked, though.

>>14727969

>>14727861
Normally I'd agree with everyone else on this, but seeing as this is ippan, anything less than first place is just a waste of time.

What would you do in this situation?
You already skipped winning with the 8 pin and now you can win with the 6 pin but you're so behind that it won't matter. Would you risk dealing into a hand (even though you literally can't, but you don't know that) hoping that you will magically draw one of the remaining 2 tiles or would you secure a small victory hoping for a comeback in south 4?
