Kazoe yakuman 「数え役満」 is a special class of yakuman obtained by combining regular yaku. Specifically, any hand that scores 13 han or more is a kazoe yakuman. Any combination of yaku and/or dora can work, though some are easier to use than others.

  • A hand that scores 26 or more han is not considered a double yakuman.
  • Kazoe yakuman cannot be combined with regular yakuman. Under standard rules, a hand cannot score both yakuman and yaku. Therefore, a yakuman hand effectively has 0 han.

Some rules may not recognize kazoe yakuman. In that case, a hand worth 13 han or more would be treated as a sanbaiman instead.

Different kazoe combinations

There are many different possibilities for a kazoe yakuman, since any yaku may contribute towards the hand.

Chinitsu based

With chinitsu already at 6 han while closed, this hand is already almost half-way to the needed 13 han for kazoe yakuman. Naturally, other yaku and/or dora are necessary in order to increase the han count to 13. Nevertheless, chinitsu is a common yaku for this combination.

Example:

Tsumo: . Dora indicator:

Dora based

Large numbers of dora can easily push hands beyond the 13 han limit. This is particularly true with kan dora and ura dora (and kan ura dora).

Example:

  • Riichi with 12+ dora
Ron: or . Dora indicators: . Ura-dora indicators:

Without dora

A few possible kazoe yakuman combinations do not require dora to achieve 13 han.

Examples:

Tsumo:
