The Charleston, Properly
What a good pass optimizes
Not your best hand. Your most hands.
Intermediate · lesson 5 of 22
It is tempting to pass everything that does not fit the hand you fancy. That is the single most common Charleston mistake, because at the deal you do not yet know which hand you are playing.
A good pass is measured by what the ten tiles you keep leave open. Give away the three tiles that serve the fewest hands on the card, and you have lost the least.
Tip
This is exactly what the Charleston drill scores, and it is what the Daily puzzle asks you for every day.
