-Two [[List of yaku|yaku]] are centered around kan calls.  One applies a win via the kan draw; and the other is applied to added kans.
+In general, tiles called for kan are still applied as triplets.  Any call for kan does not interfere with any yaku dependent on triplets, such as [[sanankou]] or [[yakuhai]].  Four [[List of yaku|yaku]] are centered around kan calls.  One applies a win via the kan draw; and the other is applied to added kans.  Then the last two are composed of kans.

-'''Chankan''' is a yaku applied on a shominkan (added kan) declaration.  A hand in tenpai for a kan call on a tile added to a called [[pon]] may declare ron on that tile.
+Both '''sankantsu''' and '''suukantsu''' require kan calls in order to count.  The first requires three calls, while the latter calls for four.  Both are rather difficult due to this requirement.  Sankantsu is not a [[yakuman]], but some yakuman are actually easier to attain.  Suukantsu is by far the most difficult and most rare yakuman to attain.
