27 WGM #61 2018/08 wgm8.com tiles into two hands of two tiles each. The tiles are said to announce themselves based on the strength or weakness of the two respective hands. This is identical to the poker concept of “cards speak”. If you think about it you’ll soon realize that with every deal there are three possible ways to set your hand. Pick any tile and you have a choice of three other tiles to go with it, and the two remaining tiles are your other hand. Most of the time there will be a clearly right and clearly wrong way to set your tiles. You have the option to ask for your tiles to be set the “house way”, meaning that the dealer sets the tiles exactly as he would for himself. This is a great option for a beginner. Once you master the basics of the game, you can then debate the optimal way to set your tiles. Determining whether your bet wins or not is very simple. Your high hand goes up against the banker’s high hand, and your low hand goes up against the banker’s low hand. If you win both, you win. If you lose both, you lose. If you win one and lose the other, the result is a push. In comparing two hands (either your high against the banker’s high or your low against the banker’s low), 多数情况下，都会有一个明显正确和明显错误的组合 方式。你可以选择将自己的牌交给荷官来做，意味着荷官 会按照与为自己配牌完全相同的方式为你配牌。这对初学 者来说是不错的选择。一旦你更好地掌握了游戏，便可以 选择自己认为的最佳组合方式。 胜负不是那么一目了然。你的高牌会与庄家高牌对 比，低牌会与庄家低牌对比。如果你两个都赢，便胜出； 如果你两个都输，便输掉；如果一赢一输，结果是平局。 在对比两手牌时（无论是你的高牌对庄家高牌，还是 你的低牌对庄家低牌），两手牌偶尔会级别或点数相同。 在这种情况下，破解平局的方法是对比这手牌中的最大单 张牌。单张牌的排序与其所属的对牌的排序一样，「至尊 宝」例外，它被看作是最低牌，而非最高。 对于破解平局另有两点要记住： 1. 如果玩家和庄家都有一手牌为0点（手牌点数将在 部分B中讲解），则玩家输，即便其有最大单张 牌。 2. 在极其少见的情况下，玩家和庄家碰巧最大单张 牌相同，那么庄家赢，不会再继续比较两张较低 的牌。 当我们在下期文章中开始解释手牌、牌型排序、点数 等概念时，你会理解得更为透彻。
