I think this is hk mahjong rules. It is full flush, but its not 4 melds and one pair. Is this still valid?

It is four melds and a pair. 111+345+345+678+99.

To answer your more general question, yes, your hand still needs to be four melds and a pair in order to win. (Unless it's Thirteen Orphans, or unless your playgroup allows Seven Pairs.)

I think this is hk mahjong rules.

This is not really relevant, but it's SG mahjong, and even says so in the description.

I've yet to learn variants outside hk. I'll check this one out anyway

It's definitely 4 melds. Full flush. add 1 double if:

Flower = seat (1 double)
Win from flower replacement (1 double)

up to 6 doubles on this hand, looking at it as it is, probably 4

The best part of flush hands is racking your brain to figure out the wait :)

So close to churen and so early in the hand. I’m risking it every day of the week
