This yaku usually appears as three groups of consecutive pairs. However, the rule interpretation views them as a two [[shuntsu|sequences]].  Potential acquisition of this yaku is best recognizable when five out of the six tiles are present in the hand.

Note that iipeikou requires the hand to be closed. If you make any open call (chii/pon/open kan), iipeikou can never be scored, even if the call was unrelated to the identical sequences. However, the ''sequences'' do not have to be closed: if you declare [[ron]] with a closed hand, iipeikou can still be scored, even if the winning tile completed the 2nd identical sequence.
