Filipino Mahjong
Cheat sheet · 17-tile hands · US Letter landscape17-tile hands
Typical Filipino table: five melds + pair. Winds/dragons are often bonus “flowers.” Confirm joker and scoring house rules.
Payouts
Pattern awards on this sheet are in points (1, ½, ¼). Sum everything that applies on the winning 17-tile hand, then multiply by the table’s stake per point.
- Discard win: the discarder often pays the full total (or a larger share); house rules differ.
- Self-draw: the other three usually split the payment equally.
- Flowers / winds-as-flowers and joker rules change both the score and who can win — confirm before settling.
Patterns compiled from common public Filipino mahjong references. Confirm joker and flower house rules.
