-After any time a player has a closed ''tenpai'' hand, the player may declare riichi.  Doing so gains the hand 1 han.  To declare riichi, a player announces riichi and deposits 1000 points onto the table.  Then the player discards a tile facing sideways in the discard pile.  This is done to indicate when riichi was called.  If that tile is claimed by another player, then the next discard is turned sideways as a replacement.  After a riichi declaration, the hand remains locked and unchangeable. In this state, the player is simply waiting for a winning tile to appear, either by draw or discard.
+After any time a player has a closed ''tenpai'' hand, the player may declare riichi.  Doing so gains the hand 1 han.  To declare riichi, a player announces riichi and discards a tile facing sideways in the discard pile.  This is done to indicate when riichi was called.  If that tile is claimed by another player for an open meld, then the next discard is turned sideways as a replacement.
+Unless the first sideways discard is claimed for a win immediately, the riichi announcer now places a bet of 1,000 points on the table. This bet is collected by the next player to win a hand. Specific rulesets may handle differently what happens to the bet on a multiple win.
+After a riichi declaration, the hand remains locked and unchangeable. In this state, the player is simply waiting for a winning tile to appear, either by draw or discard.
