Nicolas Giaconia (xkime) – Tenhou Phoenix Player
Certified Professional Player in Japan
I’ve played Japanese (Riichi) mahjong exclusively for over a decade, ranking highly on multiple tournaments, online mahjong servers and championships. I’ve been taught by countless of expert-grade players, and passed that knowledge onto the West.
As a professional mahjong player, I’ve had the opportunity to attended countless of study sessions, both on the learning and teaching side.
I’m fortunate to be friends and co-worker with many of the top mahjong professionals in Japan.
I’m also proud owner of one of the largest Mahjong strategy books collections in Japan.
