Mah Jongg

Day & Time: Mondays, 1:00-4:00pm

Location: Berkeley Branch

Enjoy playing Mah Jongg with friends and develop your skills! Newcomers are always welcome. Mah Jongg is played with four players, and a fifth person may be a bettor. The object of modern American (sometimes called "Jewish") Mah Jongg is to make tiles match up with a hand on a Mah Jongg card. This group follows the modern American rules and uses the card from the National League.
