-Also, known as '''ryuukyoku''', the hand ends in a draw, after all the tiles from the wall are drawn, except for the 14 tiles in the dead wall. In this case, the player(s) in tenpai receive points from those in noten. A hand in tenpai is one that needs just one more tile, either by draw (tsumo) or discard (ron) to win. However, that needed tile was never claimed. Nearly 40% of professional games go to an exhaustive draw due to players immediately dropping out of the race when a player declares riichi.
