Betaori: Difference between revisions

'''Betaori''' {{kana|ベタ降り}} is a general strategy emphasizing the discarding of safe tiles or minimizing the chances of dealing into other player's hands.  By employing betaori, a player has abandoned the prospect developing a completed hand; and instead, the player opts to minimally lose points via opponent tsumo or [[ryuukyoku]].  Of course, a player in betaori hopes to not lose points at all.
