'''Suuankou''' {{kana|四暗刻}} is one of the standard [[yakuman]] hands.  As a direct translation, this hand consists of four concealed [[ankou|triplets]] and a pair.
'''Suuankou''' {{kana|四暗刻}}, literally "four [[ankou]]", is a [[yakuman]] scored when a hand has four closed triplets and a pair.


If the hand is on a [[shanpon]] wait (two pairs waiting to complete a triplet), the winning tile must be a [[tsumo|self-draw]] and not a [[ron|discard]] from another player.  While ron does not open the hand, it does open the resulting ''triplet'', thus invalidating the yakuman.

'''Suuankou tanki''' {{kana|四暗刻単騎}} is a variant which features the hand with a [[tanki]] [[Machi|wait]]. The hand in this state may win from another player's discard, and it still counts as a yakuman.  In this case, all four triplets are present in the hand.  A hand of this pattern may count [[Multiple yakuman|double yakuman]], as an added [[Yaku variations#Multiple_yakuman|variation]].
'''Suuankou tanki''' {{kana|四暗刻単騎}} is a variant scored when the hand is on a [[tanki]] [[wait]], i.e. it has completed the four triplets at tenpai. The hand in this state may win from another player's discard, and it still counts as a yakuman.  In this case, all four triplets are present in the hand.  A hand of this pattern may count [[Multiple yakuman|double yakuman]], as an added [[Yaku variations#Multiple_yakuman|variation]].


For either type of suuankou, the hand itself must be closed only in order to count for yakuman.  So, none of the triplets must have been [[Naki|claimed]] from other players' discards.  An "all triplet" hand with open calls would then either count for [[toi toi]], [[sanankou]], or both.
