A hand is '''menzenchin''' {{kana|門前清}}, '''menzen''' {{kana|門前}} for short, or "'''closed'''" in English, when it has not [[naki|called]] on another player's discarded tile. This means the player has not called [[chii]], [[pon]], or an open [[kan]]. A closed kan (kan when drawing all 4 tiles yourself) does not break the closed state. Only closed hands can score certain [[yaku]].

This means the player has not called [[chii]], [[pon]], or an open [[kan]]. A closed kan (kan when drawing all 4 tiles yourself) does not break the closed state. Some [[yaku]] require the hand to be closed. Certain other yaku lose value when the hand is ''not'' closed.


A hand that is not closed is known as an '''open hand'''. This would be a hand that has called [[chii]], [[pon]], or an open [[kan]]. If a hand is open, it cannot score some [[yaku]], and other yaku are reduced in value. While an open hand is usually less valuable than a closed one, it has the ability to use chii and pon to complete faster.
