The second Charleston

All four players agreed to a second Charleston in 30.6% of games. When they played it, 52.2% of those games ended in a wall game. When somebody stopped it, 59.1% did.

A player stops the Charleston when the tiles already look good, so this shows what happened after each choice. It does not show that the second Charleston caused the difference.

How we counted

  1. Every table had four copies of our strongest computer player. In each game two of the four choose each throw from their few best tiles, leaning toward the best, so no two games go the same way.
  2. We counted games from October 18 to November 13, 2026. Games from before October 18, 2026 are left out: until then our table let some wins stand that the official rules do not allow.
  3. These players never make a courtesy pass and never trade a tile for a joker on the table, so this page says nothing about either.
  4. People choose favorite hands and throw more or less carefully than our players do. A table of people will not match these numbers exactly.
  5. We count again every day. The numbers are also here as a data file.
