Aside from [[karaten]], this is the weakest choice for a wait, because of the number of available tiles to win: one. However, the solitary tile may actually be strong, as players may view it as a [[defense|safe tile]]; and therefore, one player may discard it. The wait would be better still with the addition of [[suji]] and/or [[kabe]], or even with an [[jihai|honor tile]] with two already discarded. In essence, choosing this wait may come in the form of a trap, luring unsuspecting players. This wait is best used for emergency situations, such as being in last place at [[oorasu]] and other dire circumstances. | Aside from [[karaten]], this is the weakest choice for a wait, because of the number of available tiles to win: one.
