 According to monthly data in [[Tenhou.net]], sanshoku is around twice as frequent as ittsu. This is due to a few reasons:
-*It is easier to make a 345 sequence than a 123 sequence. To make 345, a player can have {34, 35, 45} in hand. To make 123, a player can only have {12, 23} in hand.

-*Players prefer middle tiles over terminals for [[tile efficiency]] reasons. This means they are more likely to have a 34 or 45 [[ryanmen]] than a 12 [[penchan]] or 23 ryanmen. Thus, it is easier to "incedentially" form sanshoku than it is ittsuu.

 Sanshoku is compatible with [[tanyao]] and [[chanta]]/[[junchan]], while ittsu is compatible with [[honitsu]]/[[chinitsu]].
