=== Hand shape and waits ===
After a riichi call, the likelihood of the hand winning places itself on its hand shape and [[machi|tile waits]].  Hands with waits of three tiles or greater, such as [[ryanmentan]] or [[sanmenten]], have a favorable chance of winning.  One tile waits, such as [[kanchan]] or even [[tanki]], can sneak its way to a winning hand, before the "favorable" hand does.  So, quantity does not necessarily imply a guarantee; yet it certainly does factor towards the riichi call.  Often, the liklihood of winning encourages players to making that riichi call.
