    Believe it or don't, clicking on,"Unseen tiles" in the upper right of the board shows you now what tiles are left to be drawn from the pit BUT YOUR OPPONENT'S TILES! I just confirmed this by guessing my opponent's remain tiles and she said, "Yep, that's what I have". Probably a fix that needs to occur, yes?

      @zhombu Unseen Tiles shows you all tiles that are in the "tile bag" AND in your opp's hand. Since the tile count in a game is given, anyone can easily determine the opp's hand towards the end of the game. This feature even's the playing field and both players can deploy appropriate end-game strategies.

        @lexulous OMG, no, no, no, no, and no! Are you kidding? How do you play poker, with your dealt hand face-up on the table to even out the playing field? This feature is so dumb...I can't even express it properly. Show the remaining tiles, sure, but never, ever disclose what one's opponent is holding!

          @lexulous This feature is underrated. Once people understand it properly they will see the value.

            @zhombu Anyone can easily calculate it towards the end of the game because the total tile count is known, whats on the board & in your rack is visible to you.
