This is an "abortive draw", regarding kan calls.  From the dead wall, only four tile can be used as ''rinshan pai''.  The remaining tiles from the dead wall are used as dora indicators, or they are tile replacements from the regular wall.  Neither of these two tile type can be used in play.  As a result, the limit of kan calls for a hand session is set to four.  After the fourth kan call, the ''kyoku'' (hand session) ends after the discard, barring that discard cannot be called for a win.

However, an exception is made for players with [[suu kantsu]] tenpai.  After the fourth kan call, the game continues allowing the player to score the yakuman.  This chance may be abruptly ended with a fifth call for a kan; and the ''kyoku'' ends immediately.
