  • Riichi 「立直」 You declare that you're one tile away from a finished hand. This locks your hand down.

First Round Yakuman

  • Chihou 「地和」 A non-dealer player wins on a draw tile at the first round.
  • Renhou 「人和」 A non-dealer player wins on a discard at the first round. Variance may set this to mangan, or not used at all.

Special case

This yaku does not specifically deal with a player's hand, but rather the player's discards. By default, this hand is set to mangan.

  • Nagashi Mangan 「流し満貫」 All the discards are terminals or honors. Plus, none of the discards were called pon or chi to form melds.[/spoiler]
