Sifu discards
Five of Dots
Discard 5 Dots · 1 step from ready, safe vs South
The safest tile against South, who looks ready.
Sifu's reasoning
With South looking ready (an exposed set), the 5 Dots you just drew is the safest tile that keeps your pace: South has thrown one already. It keeps you 1 step from ready with 5 useful tiles. The tempting choice is the 6 Bamboo from your 4-5-6 Bamboo run, but it is dangerous against South, and nobody has thrown one yet. When someone looks ready, pick the safest tile that keeps your pace.
