Mahjong Again
I like probability calculation, but I hate gambling. I feel uncomfortable to risk my money into uncertainty. However I played Mahjong in my friend's wedding banquet last night.

Player North: -16
In addition to the last conclusion, some new conclusions are drawn after the game:
1. The final scoring will adjust the multiple difference between the probability of Pong and that of Chi.
2. Given a tile of Dots, Bams or Craks, the probability of getting one suite is around (16/80)(8/76) (33/72)(16/68)(8/64) (30/60)(16/56)(8/52) (27/48)(16/44)(8/40) = 0.0000255163%
3. Given four different tiles, the proability of getting all triplets is around (3/80)(2/76) (3/72)(2/68) (3/64)(2/60) (3/56)(2/52) * 4C1 = 0.0000000016%
4. By Game Theory, your previous opponent will reserve your targeted pattern tiles to reduce your winning probabilty. This point easily attacks point 2.
5. By point 4, Mahjong is a game to encourage being a non-loser rather a winner. Someone claims this character of Mahjong ceases the driver of improvement and the competitiveness of Hong Kong in the new economic era.
