Legal analysis: it depends on whether it is gambling, the size of gambling money, whether it is illegal or not, and whether it should be detained. If playing mahjong is just for entertainment, there is no problem and it does not violate laws and regulations. Playing mahjong is illegal if it is gambling.

Legal basis: Article 70 of the Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) on Public Security Administration Punishment stipulates that anyone who participates in gambling with a large amount shall be detained for not more than five days or fined not more than 500 yuan.
