The main characters are somewhat similar ( not to mention the same seiyuu), both manga are focused on gambling and have psychological elements... 
reportRecommended by justafan
Both titles are about high stakes underground riichi mahjong games and psychological battles during them. 
reportRecommended by Megaton_X

reportRecommended by Chkhanime
Gambling genre. 
reportRecommended by Megaton_X
They allegedly both have Mahjong (four player that is) as the base-line of their stories 
reportRecommended by Steelsteve
Both of those titles provide endless, ridiculous, overly dramatized mahjong battles. The only difference is WTF factor: Akagi is mere 5/10, Legend of Koizumi is 11/10. 
reportRecommended by ucho
The protagonist is a genius teenager who has little to no regard for his own life as he bets it against vast sums of money. Also, mindgames. 
reportRecommended by Torisunanohokori
High level mind games.
