When no players are in tenpai, then the [[Jikaze|wind seating]] rotatesWhen all players are tenpai, then the wind seating does not rotateFor the other three cases, wind rotation is dependent on the dealer being tenpai or notWhen a ryuukyoku occurs, a [[honba]] is added to the count for the next hand, with two exception: when a player in [[riichi]] reveals a noten and is penalized for [[chombo]] and, in some variations of the [[nagashi mangan]] rule, when a player successfully completes nagashi mangan.
Sometimes, the ryuukyoku point exchanges is enough to determine the final position in games, especially in [[oorasu]] (the last hand).  Dealers in tight point races need to take particular note about the need to attain tenpai or allow the game to end. It may be desirable to pass on a small winning hand in order to collect the payment from noten players instead.
 
===Nagashi mangan===
{{main|Nagashi mangan}}
 
A special case may occur where a player achieved [[nagashi mangan]].  Here, the payment exchange applied by ryuukyoku is replaced by a "reverse mangan tsumo" paymentThe dealer pays 4000, while the other two players pay 2000 each.  If the nagashi mangan is at the dealer position, then all three players pay 4000 each.
 
==Seat rotation==
[[Jikaze|Wind seat rotation]] is dependent on the dealer's hand state: tenpai or notenIf the dealer's hand is tenpai, then [[renchan]] is applied and wind seating does not rotate.  If the dealer's hand is noten, then the wind seating rotates with an additional [[honba]] applied.

==Chombo==
{{main|Chombo}}
 
Seldom, a player may actually call a noten riichi and the hand ends in ryuukyoku.  Here, the player in [[riichi]] reveals a noten and is penalized for [[chombo]].  No wind rotation is applied, and no point exchanges are applied.  The honba count is not increased.  The next hand continues as if the chombo hand did not even occurOf course, the appropriate penalty for chombo is applied and the game continues.
