Score table memorization: Difference between revisions

'''Memorizing the [[scoring table|score table]]''', or at least learning the common values, is important for [[strategy]]. However, learning the score table should only be done after learning the [[Naki|basic game procedures]] and [[yaku]]. The score table is large, but it can be memorized over time.

 

It may be helpful to divide the table into sections, then memorize them one by one, e.g. memorizing 30 fu values, then 40 fu values. Many sections share similar point values to other sections.

Hand scores can be expressed in terms of [[han]] and [[fu]]. In order to use the score table, you need to know how much the hand is worth. If you have not memorized the scoring table yet, you can calculate han/fu, then look at the table.
