This took the table’s breath away. For those that didn’t win, it was an extraordinary lesson in how quickly things can change. After just declaring a chow, the next moment the winner declared mahjong, making everyone gasp in astonishment. Just a beautiful Mahjong.

Comments:
A very intense, aggressive game. It's the type of game that just takes your breath away: all the players were ready and waiting, but only one placed mahjong. The final result was outstanding: Little Three Dragons - a rarely seen combination, that most players can only dream of achieving.
