'''Kabe''' {{kana|壁}} is a defensive tactic that takes into account the number of tiles available. If you can see multiple copies of a tile, then an opponent is less likely to have that specific tile. If you can see all four copies of that tile, an opponent can never have that tile. This fact makes other nearby tiles safer to discard. | '''Kabe''' {{kana|壁}} is a defensive tactic that takes into account the number of tiles available.

Taking note of kabe can also help with [[tile efficiency]]. As tiles are played, it becomes less likely for you to draw said tiles. | |||

'''One chance''' occurs when three copies of a tile are visible. | '''One chance''' occurs when three copies of a tile are visible. Otherwise, the concept is similar to no chance. That is, when three copies are visible, then it is less likely for an opponent to have the fourth copy hidden in their hand. For example, if you can see three copies of 3-pin, then 1p and 2p are less likely to be an opponent's winning tile. | ||
Of course, a one chance tile is less safe than no chance, but still safer than any random tile. However, one chance becomes more dangerous as the game progresses (since it becomes more likely that the 4th copy of the tile is in the opponent's hand). | |||
