'''Suuankou''' {{kana|四暗刻}} is one of the standard [[yakuman]] hands.

If the hand is on a [[shanpon]] wait (two pairs waiting to complete a triplet), the winning tile must be a [[tsumo|self-draw]] and not a [[ron|discard]] from another player. While ron does not open the hand, it does open the resulting ''triplet'', thus invalidating the yakuman. | If the hand is on a [[shanpon]] wait (two pairs waiting to complete a triplet), the winning tile must be a [[tsumo|self-draw]] and not a [[ron|discard]] from another player.

'''Suuankou tanki''' {{kana|四暗刻単騎}} is a variant which features the hand with a [[tanki]] [[Machi|wait]]. The hand in this state may win from another player's discard, and it still counts as a yakuman. In this case, all four triplets are present in the hand. A hand of this pattern may count [[Multiple yakuman|double yakuman]], as an added [[Yaku variations#Multiple_yakuman|variation]]. | '''Suuankou tanki''' {{kana|四暗刻単騎}} is a variant which features the hand with a [[tanki]] [[Machi|wait]].

For either type of suuankou | For either type of suuankou, the hand itself must be closed only in order to count for yakuman. So, none of the triplets must have been [[Naki|claimed]] from other players' discards. An "all triplet" hand with open calls would then either count for [[toi toi]], [[sanankou]], or both. | ||

All four of the ''triplets'' must be concealed for this hand to be counted as yakuman. As mentioned above, if a triplet is completed via ron, then the triplet is not considered concealed. Therefore, if the hand has a [[shanpon]] wait, it can only win by tsumo. [[Kan|Closed kan]]s are acceptable, as kans are considered triplets. Of course, calling [[pon]] automatically invalidates the yakuman. | All four of the ''triplets'' must be concealed for this hand to be counted as yakuman.

The difficulty of this yakuman stems from the need to draw at least 3 out of 4 of a single tile type, for four different tile types | It is one of the three '''yakuman gosanke''' {{kana|役満御三家}}, or "the three big families of yakuman", along with [[kokushi musou]] and [[daisangen]]. These are the three most common yakuman in the game. Suuankou itself is the most common yakuman, likely because it can be formed from any type of tile. The difficulty of this yakuman stems from the need to draw at least 3 out of 4 of a single tile type, for four different tile types. | ||
