Mah jongg is the 4-player Chinese tile game that took America by storm in the 1920s.  Every game of mah jongg begins with the clickety-clack of mixing the tiles and the deal.  In this video, I demonstrate the process.

The mock American Mah Jongg card is timeless and generic.  This way, no matter when someone new to the game watches the video, they will have a stable reference as they learn how to play the game.
