Charleston trainer
You're dealt 13 tiles from a full 152-tile American set. Pick three tiles and pass them where the arrow points. The trainer walks you through the first Charleston, the optional second Charleston and the courtesy pass. It won't let you pass a joker.

How the Charleston works
- First Charleston (required). Pass 3 right, 3 across, 3 left.
- Blind pass. On the last pass you may pass on incoming tiles unseen.
- Second Charleston (optional). Left, across, right. Any player may stop it.
- Courtesy pass. Swap 0 to 3 tiles with the player across; the smaller number wins.
