Open Play

Open Play is designed for players who are comfortable playing American Mahjong independently. While occasional questions are always welcome, this is not an instructional session. Players should be familiar with the flow of the game—including the Charleston, turn sequence, and general NMJL rules—and be comfortable playing independently so everyone can enjoy a relaxed, social pace of play. If you're still building confidence or aren't sure whether you're ready for Open Play, Guided Play offers a supportive environment with coaching to help you transition comfortably into independent play.
