Tongits Fight: What the Rules Actually Say
A Fight in Tongits happens when a player calls it instead of drawing — forcing all active players to reveal their melds and compare deadwood counts. The player with the lowest unmelded point total wins the Fight. Face cards carry ten points each; aces count as one. If two players tie on deadwood, the hand is declared a draw and no chips
move. Calling a Fight is a calculated move — do it too early and you risk losing to a smaller hand you did not see coming. Knowing when your count is low enough to survive a comparison is the core skill the Fight rule rewards.
