Sifu discards

Nine of Characters

Discard 9 Characters · 1 step from ready, safe vs South

The safest tile against South, who looks ready.

Sifu's reasoning

With South looking ready (2 exposed sets), the 9 Characters you just drew is the safest tile that keeps your pace: South has thrown one already. It keeps you 1 step from ready with 28 useful tiles. The tempting choice is the 7 Characters from your middle 7-9 Characters, but it is dangerous against South, and nobody has thrown one yet. When someone looks ready, pick the safest tile that keeps your pace.
