When a round goes to an exhaustive draw, a special hand rechecking is applied to all non-winners.  In this case, non-winner's hands will be rechecked if the following condition is satisfied:
* Ready / Tenpai: Incomplete hand is winnable with one extra tile.
* Ready <small style="color:#999;">(''Tenpai'')</small>: Incomplete hand is winnable with one extra tile.
* Voided Suit: All tiles of unwanted suit are fully discarded.
* Voided Suit: All tiles of unwanted suit are fully discarded.


Failing to achieve those conditions will lead to a heavy penalty. In this case, failed players should pay for the ''highest'' possible score <small style="color:#999;">(''takame'')</small> towards ready players, as if they already dealed into others in game (occasional yakus won't be counted, of course). In addition, if a failed player keeps any tile from unwanted suit, a heavier penalty will be applied: the payment is lower-capped at 4 han at minimum; meanwhile, applies to every opponents regardless of their ready state.

With such a high penalty, it's always recommended to try to keep tenpai before the exhaustive draw.  Moreover, trying to hold a tile from unwanted suit is always risky and is never recommended.  Strategies like complete defense <small style="color:#999;">(''betaori'')</small> are no longer useful, as such method tries to give up tenpai and only discard safe tiles, while this only leads to a final penalty as huge as deal-in payment.
