Junchantaiyaochuu: Difference between revisions

'''Junchantaiyaochuu''' {{kana|純全帯么九}} is a terminal based [[yaku]]. For this yaku, every [[mentsu|tile group]] and the [[jantou|pair]] must contain at least one [[terminal]] (1 or 9). Additionally, at least one tile group must contain a non-terminal tile, or else [[chinroutou]] will be scored instead. Junchan is similar to [[chantaiyao]], but chanta allows honors in addition to terminals. This yaku is more commonly referred to as '''junchan''' {{kana|純全}} or occasionally '''junchantaiyao''' {{kana|純全帯么}}.

''Note'': This hand is also waiting for {{#mjt:6s}}, but the hand would not be counted as junchan.

All portions of the hand must contain a terminal, even the [[pair]]. At the very least, all honor tiles and all tiles numbered 4, 5, or 6 must be discarded. Even if your [[haipai|opening hand]] contains many terminals, going for junchan will slow down your hand.

A hand going for junchan will often discard honor tiles and middle tiles before discarding 1-3 and 7-9 tiles.  

Junchan requires terminals and no honors, so it is incompatible with [[tanyao]], [[ittsu]], [[yakuhai]], and [[shousangen]]. A [[honitsu]] hand that has junchan would actually be [[chinitsu]]. A [[toitoi]] or [[honroutou]] hand with junchan would be instead [[chinroutou]]. [[Chiitoitsu]] requires seven unique pairs, but there are only six different types of terminals. Finally, because junchan implies [[chantaiyao]], both cannot be counted with a single hand.
