Betaori: Difference between revisions

'''Betaori''' {{kana|ベタ降り}} is a general strategy which aims to minimize the chance of dealing into other players' hands. Usually, by employing betaori, a player will abandon the prospect of winning the hand. Points can be lost via opponent [[tsumo]] or [[ryuukyoku]], but you'd lose less points than by dealing in.

'''Genbutsu''' {{kana|現物}} is a term for "safe tile" due to [[furiten]]. Tiles applied by the furiten rule are the safest tiles against that particular player.

'''Mawashiuchi''' {{kana|回し打ち}} is a separate strategy aiming to build a hand while discarding relatively safe tiles. This practice is best performed, if and only if, the tiles bring about the possibility of attaining [[tenpai]] without discarding any winning tiles.
