MAH JONGG AROUND THE WORLD…

There was an exciting Mah Jongg tournament in Oxford – here are some photos from that event courtesy of David K (posted on Twitter!) – – The tournament was the Great Scholars Riichi Mahjong Tournament held at the University of Oxford over this past weekend. The tournament was limited to 32 participants playing what is known as 5 hanchan according to EMA RCR rules. The directors of the event had applied to the European Mahjong Association (EMA) for the tournament to count towards the MERS (Mahjong Europe Ranking System).
