Sometimes, [[haiyama|all the tiles]] aside from the [[dead wall]] are drawn; and no player manages to produce a winning hand. Points are exchanged based on the number of players with a [[tenpai]] hand vs those who are in [[noten]] (not tenpai). | ||
In this case, players in tenpai' reveal their hands and receive points from those in noten. Players in noten may choose to reveal their hands, but it is not required. Noten hands do not affect the point exchanges, when revealed. Though, players in tenpai are not particularly required to reveal their hands. Instead, they may opt to declare noten, despite having a tenpai hand. In exchange for keeping the hand hidden, a player loses points. | |||
[[Jikaze|Wind seating]] may or may not occur depending on the [[oya|dealer's]] hand. If the dealer is tenpai, then the wind seating does not rotate; and on the other hand, wind seating does rotate if the dealer fails to develop a tenpai hand. Though rules may be modified to require the dealer to win the hand, rather than just simply attaining tenpai. | [[Jikaze|Wind seating]] may or may not occur depending on the [[oya|dealer's]] hand.

While the term "ryuukyoku" is usually used to refer to an exhaustive draw in Japanese, on occasion this may be ambiguous, as the term technically refers to any draw (cf. [[tochuu ryuukoku]], {{kana|途中流局}}). When ambiguity occurs, it may be referred to as '''tsuujau no ryuukyoku''' {{kana|通常の流局}}, which translates roughly as "usual kind of draw". | While the term "ryuukyoku" is usually used to refer to an exhaustive draw in Japanese, on occasion this may be ambiguous, as the term technically refers to any draw (cf.

Nearly 40% of professional games go to an exhaustive draw due to players immediately [[betaori|abandoning the hand]] when a player declares [[riichi]]. | |||
