What do you mean by three mahjong tiles?

Mahjong is a traditional board game in China, which is popular all over the country. In mahjong, three cards is an important concept. When three identical cards appear in the game, players can get rewards or double points according to the rules. This is the so-called "three".

In mahjong, three cards also have a special meaning, which is "bar". When a player has four identical cards, he can change these four cards into three cards by means of a horizontal bar. Bars are divided into open bars and hidden bars. The rules of the two bars are slightly different, but both can give players extra points.

In addition to mahjong games, three cards are also of great significance in daily life. For example, in traditional festivals in China, people often post "Three Fortune Gods" to pray for good luck. In addition, some people call their family photos "three photos", because three photos can completely show the situation of a family, including couples and children.
