In the event of [[ryuukyoku]] or a dealer win, the '''honba''' or '''tsumibou count''' increases by 1 for the next hand. If someone wins a hand and East does not, the honba count resets back to zero.
In the event of [[ryuukyoku]] or a dealer win, the '''honba''' or '''tsumibou count''' increases by 1 for the next hand. The dealer indicates the honba count by using [[tenbou|100-point sticks]] and placing them on the dealer indictor or on the table.  If someone wins a hand and East does not, the honba count resets back to zero; and the 100-point sticks are returned to the dealer.


This count increases hand values increases by a total of 300 per honba.  For ron, the discarder pays the additional 300 points.  For tsumo, everyone pays an additional 100 each. These extra points are added to the hand value after the capping as mangan, haneman, etc., so a non-dealer mangan tsumo with 2 honba costs 2,200 for a non-dealer and 4,200 for the dealer.
