Haitei raoyue and houtei raoyui: Difference between revisions

m (houtei after discard after the kan on 2nd last tile)

Line 25: Line 25:
Furthermore, per rule, the dead wall must be maintained at 14 tiles.  A kan call at the very last tile draw or discard would deny the replenishment of a tile from the regular wall to the dead wall.  In other words, forming a kantsu with the very last tile or discard, followed by drawing the rinshanpai, would deplete the dead wall to 13 tiles.

A potential scenario may arise when the second to last tile draw or discard may be legally used to call kan.  In turn, that would leave the very last tile from the regular wall to be shifted into the dead wall as the replacement tile.  If rinshan kaihou does occur, this tile draw could be viewed as the last draw.  However, the last draw must come from the regular wall in order to count as haitei. If a tile is discarded instead of calling tsumo win here, that will be the last discard of the game, and calling ron on it provides houtei.

If a tile is discarded instead of calling tsumo win here, that will be the last discard of the game.  This last discard may suffice for houtei, to another player, of course.
