June 4

The $3,000 Hand!

After a long break from playing, Adelaida, Merrie, Muriel and I played Mah Jongg this afternoon.
I won $3,000 on this hand of four triples and a pair. Not the prettiest hand, but a winner nonetheless.
Unfortunately we played for play money, so there were no extra funds diverted to the lens war chest.

I've never played Mah Jongg, but am an avid backgammon player! Gorgeous capture Walter ~ love the dof! BV

Never mind Walter, maybe next time you play for real?? Super capture of your winning hand ;o) I've never played mah jong nor backgammon, too complicated for my little mind - I can just about get by at Snap though LOL
