-A call for kan reveals kan dora. Any player who has declared riichi will also benefit from kan ura dora. Therefore, a player in riichi will often call kan if it is possible. First, it reveals two extra dora instead of the usual one. Second, a player in riichi is already in tenpai; thus, they are more likely to win. Conversely, opponents should be wary about calling kan when another player is in riichi for the same reasons.

 When playing with real tiles, players must always be aware of whether a kan call can [[Kan#Restrictions|legally be called]]. Players using game software or online platforms do not need to be aware because the programs handle the situations for them.
