What Would You Discard? #4996548 (1-shanten)
Which tile do you discard? (maximize acceptance)
Show answer
3萬 ・ acceptance 19tiles: 3筒 6筒 4索 6索 7索 東
Why this move works
The answer is 3m. Discarding the isolated 3m keeps 1-shanten with the widest acceptance — 19 tiles (3p, 6p, 4s, 6s, 7s, 東).
Cutting a central tile like 5p would fall back to 2-shanten. Keep the shape and discard 3m for the broadest acceptance.
