If all four copies of a tile are visible, then no copies of that tile can be hidden inside an opponent's hand. Thus, certain hand compositions become impossible.
If all four copies of a tile are visible, then no copies of that tile can be hidden inside an opponent's hand. Thus, certain hand compositions become impossible.


For example, if all four {{#mjt:3p}} are visible, then it is impossible for an opponent to have a [[wait]] pattern of:  
For example, if all four {{#mjt:3p}} are visible, then it is impossible for an opponent to have 3-pin. Therefore, it is impossible for an opponent to have a [[wait]] pattern of:  
*{{#mjt:23p}} (Waiting for: {{#mjt:1p}} and {{#mjt:4p}})
*{{#mjt:23p}} (Waiting for: {{#mjt:1p}} and {{#mjt:4p}})
*{{#mjt:34p}} (Waiting for: {{#mjt:2p}} and {{#mjt:5p}})
*{{#mjt:34p}} (Waiting for: {{#mjt:2p}} and {{#mjt:5p}})
*{{#mjt:13p}} (Waiting for: {{#mjt:2p}})
*{{#mjt:13p}} (Waiting for: {{#mjt:2p}})
These waits are impossible simply because there are no more 3-pins left.


Therefore, {{#mjt:1p}} and {{#mjt:2p}} are much safer than normal - these are considered "no chance" tiles. It is impossible for an opponent to ''complete a sequence'' with these tiles. It is still possible for an opponent to win off a [[shanpon]] (triplet wait) or [[tanki]] (pair wait), though these types of wait are considerably rarer.
