Open tanyao may or may not be allowed in various [[Rule_variations#Kuitan|rule variations]]. If open tanyao is disallowed, then the rule variation is called "kuitan nashi" ("no open tanyao"), and tanyao would be restricted as a closed only yaku. If open tanyao is allowed, it is called "kuitan ari" ("open tanyao allowed"). | ||
