The MahjIQ Decision Lab

Six prompts for slowing down the instant between seeing a tile and acting on it.

01

Name the decision

Is this a pass, hand-selection, pivot, exposure, defense, or rules question?

  • What changed?
  • What stays true?
Try thisWrite the decision in one sentence.
02

List two options

Force comparison. A single option feels inevitable because it has no rival.

Try thisName the strongest alternative.
03

Show the evidence

Separate rack facts, visible-table facts, current-card requirements, and guesses.

Try thisMark each statement known or inferred.
04

Price the tradeoff

What flexibility, speed, safety, or information does each option gain and lose?

Try thisChoose the cost you accept.
05

Set a review trigger

Decide what future tile or exposure would change the choice.

Try thisFinish: “I reconsider if…”
06

Review fairly

After the round, judge the information process—not whether luck rewarded it.

Try thisKeep one lesson; release the result.

A good decision can still lose.

Your practice goal is a more explicit process under uncertainty, not control over the next tile.
