A tanki machi is a common type of wait pattern. Most mahjong hands form to complete the fourth meld. However, a handful of mahjong hands can be formed with four complete melds, while needing to finish the pair. That makes this pattern referred to as the "pair wait". Unlike the other basic patterns, there are a few types of pair waits to consider.

Pattern

The wait pattern involves waiting for a single tile.

Hadaka tanki

Hadaka tanki machi is a special type of pair wait pattern. A hand in this state has called for discarded tiles four times. Upon doing so, only one tile is left closed in the hand.

Harabote

Harabote is a type of pair wait, by which the tile is duplicated and used in a sequence. As such, this gives the wait one less tile to wait for, as two are already in the hand.
