Pinfu is one of the most common yaku. When developing a hand, players will naturally keep [[ryanmen]] shapes in their hand, due to their higher [[tile efficiency]]. In addition, sequences are easier to complete than triplets. Therefore, players looking to complete hands quickly are likely to get pinfu. While it isn't as fast as [[tanyao]] or [[yakuhai]], because pinfu cannot be scored open, this yaku is still seen often.

It naturally combines with other sequence based yaku, namely [[iipeikou]], [[sanshoku doujun]], and [[ittsuu]].
