Still deciding?
Can't I find this free online?
You can find pieces. This is organized, designed for the table, and made to be printed.
I already have the card.
The card tells you what to build. It never tells you how to decide, when to expose, or what to pass.
Will this work with my group's house rules?
Everything here is standard NMJL play, built to sit alongside whatever house rules your table uses.
Is a PDF worth this much?
Look at the sheets above — this is a reference kit you'll use every time you play, not a one-time worksheet.

Marnie has been playing American Mahjong for years — learning it the real way, at real tables, from patient friends and a lot of trial and error along the way. She created this course after watching beginner after beginner get stuck on the exact same handful of things, and realizing no one had written the clear, step-by-step explanation she wished she'd had when she was starting out.
This course is the result: everything explained the way it should have been explained the first time.
Marnie wrote this guide for new players: every lesson carefully researched and checked, then explained step by step in plain English. This course is the result: everything explained the way it should have been explained the first time.
