'''Betaori''' focuses on discarding nothing but safe tiles. In this state, a player has completely abandoned all hope of developing a winning hand; and instead, the hand is dedicated towards avoiding any threatening hands. At times, even a player achieving a tenpai hand may need to completely break the tenpai for avoidance. The essence of betaori is to always discard the safest tile first. Suji tiles or even hell wait only honors shouldn't be discarded before any genbutsu tiles. | '''Betaori''' focuses on discarding nothing but safe tiles.

It is appropriate to use when in a good shape iishanten for a strong hand. | ||
