Difficulty | At discretion |
Daburu riichi 「ダブルリーチ」, or Double riichi, is a special case for riichi, where the player declares riichi on the first turn. No tile call may have interrupted the turn order before the declaration, where applicable. For the dealer and the player to the right (South), this case would be impossible. Double riichi is worth 2 han instead of 1 han, as a bonus for the initial timing. With the added han value, a call for double riichi has a huge advantage over the other players in conjunction with the immediate speed of the hand.
