Once a hand reaches 4 han, every han afterwards is reduced in value. So if a hand has 4+ guaranteed han after opening, it's often best to call. At this point, the extra speed from calling is often worth the drop from value. | Once a hand reaches 4 han, every han afterwards is reduced in value.

When a hand is cheap, the opposite effect can occur. If a hand would be 1 han (riichi-only) when closed, or 1 han when opened, going open is often better. This mostly happens with [[yakuhai]] pairs - keeping the pair ruins [[tanyao]] and [[pinfu]], | When a hand is cheap, the opposite effect can occur.

This mostly happens with [[yakuhai]] pairs - keeping the pair ruins [[tanyao]] and [[pinfu]], but pon lets you get 1 han from the yakuhai triplet. Even when considering the score bonuses from riichi (ippatsu, uradora, [[mentsumo]]), an open hand's increased speed is often better than the chance for extra points. | ||
