Strategy surrounding the call for [[riichi]] entails various considerations. Players may very well blindly call riichi without any thought. Sometimes, this move pays off; and the player is rewarded. Then on the other hand, players are punished. Even worse, they are dubiously punished. | Strategy surrounding the call for [[riichi]] entails various considerations. Players may very well blindly call riichi without any thought. Sometimes, this move pays off; and the player is rewarded. Then on the other hand, players are punished. Even worse, they are dubiously punished. While riichi hands gives players the chance to "cash in" on higher scoring hands, players must not be blinded by the opportunity without considering the risks. Sometimes, that riichi call may not be necessary anyways. Regardless, players win or lose on the risk-reward nature of the riichi declaration. | ||
