At the mahjong table, the most frustrating moment is when you have already listened to the cards and find yourselfDon't play tricks。这种情况在各地麻将规则中都有特定称呼，最常见的是“死听"or"绝张”。所谓“死听”，指的是你等待的牌已经全部出现在牌池中，或者被其他玩家碰杠，导致理论上不可能再摸到或别人打出，你的听牌形同虚设。而“绝张”更侧重于某张牌已经全部亮相，再无剩余。了解这些术语，不仅能让你在牌桌上更专业，还能帮助你及时调整策略，避免无效等待。

“死听”与“绝张”的区别

Although both said they could not play tricks, their focus was different.死听Emphasize that the status of listening to cards is "dead" and there is no possibility of playing cards;绝张It means that a key card has disappeared. For example, if you listen to thirty to sixty thousand, but all sixty thousand have been played or knocked out, then sixty thousand is a blank, and your playing card may still be "alive" because of the remaining thirty thousand. If 30,000 yuan is gone, it will be completely dead. In actual combat, players need to quickly judge whether their cards are still valuable, otherwise they should change or abandon them as soon as possible.

Common reasons for not being able to play tricks

  • The card pool is now all waiting for cards: All the cards you have been waiting for have been dealt or have been touched by other players. There is no possibility of any more cards in the wall of remaining cards.
  • Detained by other players: Some players may deliberately hold the cards you need, especially in the final stages, preventing you from playing.
  • rules limit: In some mahjong rules, certain card types cannot be manipulated, such as "asking for all" cannot be manipulated by others, or "thirteen ones" must be manipulated by yourself.
  • 荒庄流局: After touching the card wall, no one plays the cards. At this time, even if you listen to the cards, you cannot play the cards.

How to deal with the situation of "can't be stupid"

When encountering death or failure, don't stick to it. Experts usually adopt the following strategies:

  1. Quickly determine the number of cards remaining: Estimate the possible number of cards you have left waiting for by observing the card pool and opponents 'hands. If the remaining is zero or extremely low, give up immediately.
  2. Change to other cards: If the structure of the card in your hand permits, you can remove some of the tabs and change to other cards that are more likely to appear. For example, if you originally listened to the side Zhang, you can change to listen to the two sides or more sides.
  3. Turn to defense: If the risk is too high, it is better to give up Hupao, focus on defense, avoid shooting, and strive to lose or lose a small game.
  4. use the rules: In some rules, you can "pass through the water" or "change the listening" after listening to the dead, understand the rules and make reasonable use of them.
