Street Mahjong in Hong-Kong

I'm sure some of you have seen this short street-shot video of Mahjong being played in Hong-Kong. But It's worth seeing if you haven't... the speed at which they play is fun to watch and, unlike the Reach rules, they open their hands like there is no tomorrow!

I cannot help but look and think: "Man, these guys are slow". :lol:

If I can dig it up, there's a video of riichi players going at a much faster rate than that.
