Yakuman are worth 8000 base points. For a non-dealer, this would equal 32000 points for ron, or 8000/16000 points from tsumo.

A [[kazoe yakuman]] is scored when a hand reaches 13 or more [[han]]. Otherwise, in standard rules, a hand cannot score both yakuman and regular yaku at the same time. In other words, if a hand contains a non-kazoe yakuman, it effectively has 0 han.

In [[aotenjou]], yakuman ''can'' score with other yaku. Under those rules, each yakuman is treated as a regular yaku worth 13 han.

Yakuman are rare and difficult. Most yakuman have restrictions that make them difficult, such as [[ryuuiisou]] only allowing 6 of 34 tile types, or [[shousuushii]] requiring 3 [[wind]] triplets and a pair of the fourth. Others are achieved in specific conditions, such as [[tenhou and chiihou]] being won on the first draw.

Among the yakuman, three in particular are considered to be among the easiest to attain: [[suuankou]], [[daisangen]], and [[kokushi musou]]. Collectively, these three yakuman are known as '''yakuman gosanke''' {{kana|役満御三家}}, or "the three big families of yakuman".
