Lara's hands reading the 2026 NMJL card at the table

Free guide

How to read the card,
without the panic.

The whole read in one place: the 9 sections, the building blocks, where jokers go, and how to read a line in one suit or three, with real tiles.

What you'll get

  • 1The card is a menu. What it actually is, and the 9 sections it splits into.
  • 2The building blocks. Single, pair, pung, kong, quint, sextet, and where jokers can and cannot go.
  • 3Read a real line. One line walked through left to right, in real tiles.
  • 4One suit or three. See the same hand built both ways the card allows, by color.
