Players may declare Riichi with any score. Tournaments often provide each player with a single 1,000-point-stick for Riichi declarations. Winning players always get one Riichi stick back. When multiple players win, leftover Riichi sticks from past hands go to the winner sitting closest to East, with East having top priority.

Table counters are added whenever East won a hand, or there was an exhaustive or abortive draw. Table counters are all removed when someone else than East wins and East does not. Chombo leads to a repetition of the hand with the same number of table counters.

After each Hanchan, players receive a relatively large [[Uma|uma]] of 10-30, i.e., the second player receives 10,000 points from the third, and the first player receives 30,000 points from last place. When player scores tie, the tying players share their Uma; ties are not resolved by player seating order. Players tying for first share any leftover Riichi sticks. There is no [[Oka||oka]]. Scores are ''not'' rounded to the nearest thousand.
