The Hand of the Day archive

Every morning the coach deals a fresh hand and reads it tile by tile: the category it leans toward, what to keep, what to pass. Today’s hand is live on the daily page, and everything before it lives here.

The Hand of the Day archive is every past dealt American Mahjong hand, 146 so far, each read tile by tile by the coach and grouped by the direction it went, so you can study one shape at a time.
