Cheating is serious business.
Not thrilling like Akagi or Touhai, but was a very good read. One of the best mahjong manga out there.

Pretty good period piece

It's a good period piece on what post-war Japan was like. I thought the gambling would require strategy and whatnot, but there's a lot of that Yu-Gi-Oh type of heart of the cards crap. There is still some gambling strategy here, and the main character is pretty interesting.
