A three-tile meld may either be a consecutive sequence of same-suited tiles, or just any three identical tiles. In the cases of [[kokushi musou]] and [[Chii toitsu]], however, the regular composition of the hand is ignored.


In addition, a winning hand must have at least one [[Yaku|yaku]]. A yaku is a special condition under which the win occurs, or a distinguished pattern within the hand's tiles.
