=== Judgement of liability === | |||
A misunderstanding happens frequently when the last required set was melded with a daiminkan, since this seems to suggest that such liability should no longer be applied, due to the fact that the yakuman already exists even without daiminkan. To understand how liability works with "the responsibility of completing an ensured yakuman", it is better to switch to opponent's view: if a yakuman is ensured in opponent's view, the relationship of liability will be established. | |||
'''Example''': | |||
Supposing a player completed a daisangen, and the hand looks like the following one in his view: | |||
: {{#mjt:1234m}}, last: {{#mjt:666'6z}}, second: {{#mjt:5'55z}}, first: {{#mjt:77'7z}} (Main perspective) | |||
Toimen becomes the liable player as the fact that he becomes the feeder of last sangenpai set. But one may try to point out that a yakuman is already completed before this daiminkan happens, which looks like in main perspective's view: | |||
: {{#mjt:1234m666z}}, second: {{#mjt:5'55z}}, first: {{#mjt:77'7z}} (Main perspective) | |||
Though such proposing is incorrect. The point is, any of other opponents can never know the actual combination of main perspective's hand. In opponent's view, it actually look like: | |||
: {{#mjt:0000000z}}, second: {{#mjt:5'55z}}, first: {{#mjt:77'7z}} (Opponent's view) | |||
It is apparently not an "ensured" yakuman (although it may probably be): | |||
:1. The hand doesn't suggest he "must" have a concealed triplet of hatsu: (This also suggests why kamicha, the feeder of second require set "haku", doesn't need to be liable for the yakuman hand.) | |||
:: {{#mjt:1234m111z}} {{#mjt:5'55z}} {{#mjt:77'7z}} | |||
:2. The hand may finally go like this afterwards since the player can discard hatsu and switch his ready tiles (even though this highly seems to not happen): | |||
:: {{#mjt:12345m66z}} {{#mjt:5'55z}} {{#mjt:77'7z}} | |||
In this case, since the daiminkan of hatsu finally confirmed an "ensured" daisangen hand in other's view and killed the other possible development of being a non-yakuman: | |||
: {{#mjt:0000z}}, last: {{#mjt:666'6z}}, second: {{#mjt:5'55z}}, first: {{#mjt:77'7z}} (Opponent's perspective) | |||
The relationship of liability is no-doubt established for toimen, for becoming the feeder of last required set. | |||
This rule also implies a useful strategy of gameplay: | |||
* If a melding confirms an ensured yakuman, the opponents should have avoided discarding such tile to get rid of the liability. | |||
* If a melding doesn't guarantee a yakuman, the opponents can discard it safely without liability. | |||
