When playing betaori, you should discard the safest tiles, e.g. the safest tiles against a declared [[riichi]]. This requires deduction from visible tiles, including all discards, dora indicator, and the tiles in the player's own hand. Of course, it also requires the player's active decision to defend (as opposed to continuing to push the hand towards tenpai).
