Two special cases involve tile availability, rather than the hand patterns themselves. | |||

'''Jigoku''' {{kana|地獄}} is a special pattern, which can utilize any wait pattern listed here or among the complex patterns. Although, this condition is more likely to occur among the simple patterns, especially that of the single tile waits of penchan, kanchan, and tanki. The only criteria for jigoku is the number of tiles available to win, and that number is one. This is made possible by the unavailability of another copy by virtue of the discards, one's own hand, or dora indicators. | '''Jigoku''' {{kana|地獄}} is a special pattern, which can utilize any wait pattern listed here or among the complex patterns.
