If that pair you’ve been holding onto just isn’t working with the rest of your hand, let it go!
Keep an eye on the discard pile to let you know what your opponents are giving away...and whether the tiles you need are still available. If you see what you need in the discard pile, you may need to change hands!

If you're lucky and the tiles you've been dealt, along with the first couple passes of the Charleston, give you a strong starting hand, you may not want to give away any of your tiles! Remember: you may stop the Charleston — but only after the first left pass. Beginners often forget this rule, but it can be a game changer. Stopping the Charleston can elevate your play…and make your opponents a little nervous at the same time!
Remember: when you pick up a tile that's been discarded, you must reveal it on your rack in a group.
We know it's easier when you separate your tiles on your rack as you are building your hand, but that can tip off your opponents to what you are collecting. Keep those tiles pushed together — and your opponents guessing!
Think twice before choosing a hand that requires a pair you don’t already have. There’s a reason hands with a pair (or pairs) are difficult!
