===Tiebreakers=== | |||
When players are tied at the end of the game, some rulesets break the tie based on initial dealership. In order of priority, 1st dealer (East player in East 1) > 2nd dealer (South player in East 1) > 3rd dealer (West player in East 1) > 4th dealer (North player in East 1). This order is used because, traditionally, being the last dealer is seen as an advantage. As the last dealer, you can end the game once you reach 1st place in the last round; other players do not have this luxury. | |||
