==Ura dora==
This applies only to hands won using [[Riichi|riichi]].  In the event a riichi declared hand has won, the tiles underneath the dora indicator(s) are revealed.  These newly revealed tiles serve as additional dora indicators.  Potentially, such hands may potentially gain substantial value, just off of the ura dora.
==Kan dora==
After a call for [[Kan|kan]], additional dora indicators are flipped.  These are tiles next to the dora indicator counter clockwise on the dead wall.  Depending on the rules and/or formality of the game, the timing for flipping the kan dora during a kan procedure may vary.  Casual games will simply flip the kan dora immediately after kan.  More technical games will differentiate between the kan types, where the kan dora may be flipped after the player makes a discard.
Likewise, in the event of riichi, the ura dora underneath the kan dora are also revealed, as kan ura dora.
