For example, if you can see all four copies of 3-pin, then 1-pin and 2-pin cannot possibly be part of a sequence wait. This is because no opponent can possibly have a 23 or 34 shape, because no opponent can have a 3 in the first place. | For example, if you can see all four copies of 3-pin, then 1-pin and 2-pin cannot possibly be part of a sequence wait.

Tiles towards the middle of the "blockade", such as 4-pin or 5-pin when all four 3-pin are visible, are not much safer, similar to how half suji are not much safer. | Only tiles outside the blocked-off tile (i.e. tiles further from 5) are safe.

Like suji, other waits - specifically, waits that are not sequences - are still possible. It is also possible to target 3 or 7 with a [[penchan]]. Overall, kabe is comparable to suji (though kabe is safer), and should be used in a similar fashion. | Like suji, other waits - specifically, waits that are not sequences - are still possible.
