The third chapter of the book covers tile efficiency with an emphasis on maximization. Players need to understand that a hand can be broken down into basic blocks. Given various hand shapes, a hand during the process of development always have a number of [[Uke ire|waiting tiles]] to further progress the hand. Here, player must look to aim to reduce the [[shanten]] count. A lower shanten count reduces the number of waiting tiles. This only means the hand advances and requires fewer tiles to advance further. Once [[tenpai]], the counts are minimized. | |||
