Tom is ‘Reaching’ in L.A.
Tom’s site features a weekly column and in his latest Japanese-style Mahjong column (November 8, 2009) he features a new riichi parlor that reopened on November 1st with a tournament.
At ReachMahjong.com we love Tom Sloper and all of his work, from his infamous Mahjong FAQ to his easy-to-read book The West Wind and the Red Dragon. You’ll see Tom on a regular basis at our Ron2 Meet-ups.
Tom’s site features a weekly column and in his latest Japanese-style Mahjong column (November 8, 2009) he features a new riichi parlor that reopened on November 1st with a tournament. They played it poker-style, eliminating tables until there was a final table, where the winner was eventually decided.
It looks like all of the players were Japanese, residing in the US, but if you’re in the LA area, this parlor may be worth checking out. You can see all the details and lots of photos from the event on Tom Sloper’s website: Sloperama . If you’ve never seen Tom’s FAQ before, you’re in for a treat. Everything you would ever want to ask about Mahjong.
Thanks Tom! See you on the forums!
