It's really just poker with extra steps.

Learn the suits, learn the wind characters, memorize the yaku patterns, and you'll be rinshan kaihou'ing into an All Green in no time.

Just kidding, that was one of the most ridiculously lucky hands I've ever pulled off, and it was in 3p, so it doesn't even really count.

But really, until you've memorized this list:

Don't make any chi/pon/kan calls until you're sure you know you're doing. Calling dragons is almost always safe, and calling winds if you know which ones you're calling is fine, but beyond that, don't open your hand unless you're sure you know what the end result will be.

Otherwise, a beginner can easily render their hand unwinnable. As I learned when playing mahjong porn games.
