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. | Therefore, {{#mjt:1p}} and {{#mjt:2p}} are much safer than normal - these are considered "no chance" tiles.
