Optional yaku

Tsuuiisou 「大七星」 Closed only Yakuman, or double yakuman	The seven pair variant to tsuuiisou. This may count as an independent yakuman pattern. Otherwise, it may be counted as tsuuiisou.

Paarenchan 「八連荘」 May be open, Dealer only Yakuman

If the dealer wins a hand with eight honba on the table, the hand is scored for yakuman regardless of its usual value, and then the dealership rotates. Usually, paarenchan is not a true yaku and the dealer must still have another yaku to declare a win, but this is not always the case. The exact counting of wins may also vary; some rules may award the yakuman on the eighth win, rather than the ninth, and some rules may require the dealer to actually accumulate that many wins, not just any honba.
