The major disadvantage to shanpon involves locked tiles. In this case, pairs of waiting tiles may be incorporated into other player(s) waiting hands, which may or may not be dropped. If this happens, then one or both tile types decrease in likelihood for a win. Of course, the win may be assured, if such a player decided to split a pair and discard the needed tile. | The major disadvantage to shanpon involves locked tiles.

=== Combinations === | |||
Shanpon may combine with other tile waits. Shanpon with [[ryanmen]] produces [[entotsu]]. Shanpon has the ability to mix with itself. This is only possible with a built-in pattern of [[iipeikou]], plus a fourth numbered pair in the sequence. | |||
