 ==Maximal Score==
+When a hand can be interpreted to have won with multiple different types of basic wait, the interpretation that scores the most final points is always used. This is always the interpretation that scores the most han; it may not score the most fu. The most common reason for this is for [[pinfu]].
-When a hand has multiple waits, or the same wait multiple ways, the way that leads to the highest-scoring hand must be chosen. This will always be the hand with the most [[han]]. This may not necessarily be the option that produces the most fu. The most common reason for this is to score [[pinfu]]. For instance:
+'''Example 1:'''
 :{{#mjt:23345789m567p44s}} Agari: {{#mjt:4m}}
 If the hand is viewed as waiting on the ryanmen {{#mjt:23m}}, then it qualifies for pinfu. If, however, the hand is viewed as waiting on the kanchan {{#mjt:35m}}, then it does not. It must be scored as pinfu because that is worth more points.
-Pinfu is not, however, the only example of this:
+'''Example 2:'''
+:{{#mjt:23345789m44s5'67p}} Agari: {{#mjt:4m}}
+This is the same hand, except open. Pinfu cannot be scored when open. Therefore, the hand scores the +2 fu from kanchan, because that is worth more points. For this hand there is no functional difference (the hand ends up rounding to 30 fu either way), but it can matter for other hand compositions.
+'''Example 3:'''
+Pinfu is not the only example of this:
 :{{#mjt:789m66678999p789s}} Agari: {{#mjt:5z}}
