 ==Mawashiuchi==
-'''Mawashiuchi''' {{kana|回し打ち}} is a separate strategy: a "halfway" style, it still aims to build a hand while discarding relatively safe tiles. If a dangerous tile is drawn and can't be used in the hand, it usually converts into betaori. This practice is best performed, if and only if, the tiles bring about the possibility of attaining [[tenpai]] without discarding any winning tiles.
+'''Mawashi uchi''' {{kana|回し打ち}} is a separate strategy from betaori. A "halfway" style, it aims to retain 1-shanten while discarding relatively safe tiles (e.g. [[suji]], [[sotogawa]] tiles). Mawashi means to discard safe tiles even at the cost of tile acceptance.
+When undergoing mawashi, you should constantly evaluate if you should be folding. If a dangerous tile is drawn and can't be used in the hand, mawashi usually is converted to betaori. If it gets too late in the round, it may also be good to fold (it is easier to deal in when late in the round). Conversely, if you hit tenpai in a reasonable timeframe, pushing is good.
