This course does not ask you to memorise 81 patterns. It groups them by what they have in common, and shows you how to reach eight points with real tiles.
The eight-point minimum is where most newcomers stall, so you practise it on real hands.
Rather than a list to memorise, patterns are taught in families that share a shape.
Eight flower tiles, plus hands like knitted straights that you will not have met elsewhere.
No. Once you learn them in groups that share a shape, you start recognising them in play.
A feel for handling tiles helps, but the course assumes no prior knowledge.
All ten lessons are free.
