Sifu discards
One of Bamboo
Discard 1 Bamboo · 1 step from ready, safe vs West
The safest tile against West, who looks ready.
Sifu's reasoning
With West looking ready (an exposed set), the 1 Bamboo is the safest tile that keeps your pace: a terminal fits fewer waits than a middle tile. It keeps you 1 step from ready with 10 useful tiles. Many players would throw the 4 Dots from your middle 2-4 Dots, but it is dangerous against West, and nobody has thrown one yet. When someone looks ready, pick the safest tile that keeps your pace.
