{{Main|Tenpai}}


Tenpai is the state of the hand waiting on just one tile to claim for a win, either by draw or discard. Even if the hand does not win, it can still be awarded a small amount of points at the end of the hand, after all possible tiles are drawn and discarded.  So, hands at tenpai during ryuukyoku still has some value.
