'''Sankantsu''' | '''Sankantsu''' {{kana|三槓子}} is a standard [[yaku]]. This yaku requires kan to be called three times by one player. Due to this requirement, this yaku is actually the most difficult of the regular yaku. Within [[Tenhou.net]], the yaku actually occurs less frequently than some yakuman. | ||

Of all the standard yaku, sankantsu is the most difficult and least frequent. Its rate of occurrence is comparable to that of some yakuman. As the name implies, [[kan]] must be called three times before the end of the hand. A fourth kan converts the hand to the yakuman, [[suukantsu]]. | Of all the standard yaku, sankantsu is the most difficult and least frequent. Its rate of occurrence is comparable to that of some yakuman. As the name implies, [[kan]] must be called three times before the end of the hand. A fourth kan converts the hand to the yakuman, [[suukantsu]]. The difficulty stems from the need to call kan three times; but overall, the use of kan is risky play due to additional [[dora|kan-dora]], which may benefit the other players. This is true even for a single kan call, let alone three times. | ||
