HAMBURG - German mahjong players are doing very well this year. Until some years ago, they did not play a role of importance on international tournaments. Even the yearly friendship Rhododendron Tournament against Dutch players at Edewecht was never won by a German player. But it looks like these days are definitely over.
In May this year, Richard Stöckeman was laureated as the first German winner of an international MERS tournament. And now, just four months later, the Germans ruled on their own (open) championship. After the Third German Open, concluded today in Hamburg, Dagmar Fischer was crowned as the winner and as the new German champion, with Stephanie Duhme as the runner-up. Last year, those two positions were for Danish players (Brian Krog and Henrik Leth). The number 3 place in Hamburg was for Joe-Calberson Huynh from France.
Just 32 players participated in this championship, which coincided with the Dutch Nine Gates Tournament at IJsselstein.
DMJL-vice-president Stephan Hilchenbach made a video of the championship. (A high-quality version of the film, together with all the raw takes, is available at Mah-Jongg Shop for €5,00 plus shipping.)




What a nice surprise!
NICE GUY-NICE CHAMPION!
Congratulations from your former partners.
Sylvie, Sven, Kevin...
Par contre, la réplique n'était pas drôle. Informative, peut-être (donc ayant quoi comme but au juste ?), mais ce n'est pas de l'humour, ni du premier, ni du troisième, ni du énième degré.

Ce n'est pas parce qu'on rit que c'est drôle.
This contrasts with the EMA MCR country ranking, which is led by France.
The "Poker Face" won again, congrats to him.
When can we drop this sick hyperbole once and for all? I mean, it seems like you aren't even playing mahjong to have fun anymore.
IT > FR. "Yeah but what about..." IT > NL (with innuendo that FR > NL). Sounds more like a penis-measuring contest than a game we can play together...
french 34/96 = 35%
dutch 27/96 = 28%
italian 7/96 = 07%
In the Top Ten :
french 6/10 = 60%
dutch 3/10 = 30%
italian 1/10 = 10%
And it's not because of dutch players if Marco lose 2 times 2 points... WE have done our job ;)
He was just the best, once again : congratulations to you Marco !
