 '''Oorasu''' is designated for the last dealer of the game, barring any player ending the game earlier by dropping below zero points.  This is the South 4 hand.  Naturally, if the last dealer wins, an additional hand, or renchan, may be awarded and the game continues.  Though, the game may also end if the last dealer happens to be the points leader, or if the other players force a wind rotation.

-If necessary, the game may continue into an extra wind round.  For a hanchan game, this is designated as '''Shaakyoku''', or the '''West Round'''.  This functions as an "overtime session", where no player during oorasu managed to score equal or greater than the goal score, which is typically 30,000.  The instant a player does score that mark, then the game immediately ends with the result as is.  As it can be implied, scores during this round can be fairly close scores.  Hands worth mangan or less may be enough to pull off a 1st place finish.
+'''Enchousen''' {{kana|延長戦}} is an extra round, provided that no player scored above the [[scoring|target points]] (typically 30,000) at the end of the game.  This round functions like an "overtime sudden death period".  The instant a player scores above the target points, then the game ends immediately; and the same player wins the game.
