As i promised, i tried to recall how to play the game "tong-its". If I'm not mistaken the game could host 3 upto 4 players. A player should win twice in the row to get the pot money. Hence, the word "tong-its" or two hits was derived.
Each player would be given 12 cards but the dealer takes 13 cards. The dealer would start the game by throwing a first card. Second player could either " chow" or get the card in order to make 3 succedding cards of the same suit or 3 the same card of a different suit. If not, he can opt to pick from the deck but still need to throw 1 card. And the card starts to hit high. It rotates on the counter clockwise fashion. In order to win, a player should be able to dispose all of his cards if not the least num of cards left.
Whew! Geez.. I still have a lot to learn in cards terminology.
Now, with those things in my mind. I should be able to understand Mahjong better. If and if what my dad said was true.
