The wait pattern involves waiting for a single tile. In doing so, the hand is looking to complete the pair, while the rest of the hand is completed.

'''Hadaka tanki''' {{kana|裸単騎}} is a tanki wait formed after a hand [[call]]s for 4 different tile groups. After the 4th call, the hand is left with only one tile in its closed section, with a tanki wait on that tile. A [[suukantsu]] tenpai always has a hadaka tanki wait.

A hadaka tanki wait does not have any special properties, but since only one tile can be discarded, the hand has little room for [[defense]]. The worst case scenario for a hand in hadaka tanki involves both the waiting tile and the drawn tile as winning tiles for another player. In this case, the player has no choice but to deal in.

'''Jigoku''' {{kana|地獄}} ("hell wait") is a tanki wait where two of the three tiles are visibly unavailable (e.g. discarded, used as dora indicators). Thus, only one tile is left, making a win particularly unlikely. The final tile could be in another players hand or the [[dead wall]], making a win totally impossible. A hell wait on an [[honor]] tile can be dangerous

'''Nakabukure''' {{kana|中膨れ}} is a tanki wait. The hand has a sequence, a duplicate tile in the middle of the sequence, and waits on the duplicate tile to complete a pair. Since two of the tiles are already in hand, this wait has one less available tile than a regular tanki.

While not good as a tenpai wait, this shape is strong for improving the hand before tenpai. In the above example, drawing any of 2s-5s or 3s-6s results in a [[ryanmen]] wait (a normal 4s would only create a ryanmen with 3s-6s).
