The count for [[honba]] keeps track of the number of consecutive hands, by which no one has won a hand. Every time ryuukyou or even [[tochuu ryuukoku]] (abortive draw) occurs, this count increases by one. Barring [[rule variations|house rules]], the count may or may not increase regarding [[chombo]]. When a non-dealer player wins a hand, the count resets back to zero. | The count for [[honba]] keeps track of the number of consecutive hands, by which no one has won a hand.

Variation on ryuukyoku stems from the qualification of tenpai. Under some rules and conditions, hands appear to be in tenpai will be declared as noten instead. | |||

Some many consider this hand as noten, despite needing one tile for completion. However, the hand is also [[karaten]], or impossible to complete because all possible tiles for completion are used with the [[kan]] call. So, instead of gaining points, the player loses points at ryuukyoku. | |||
