Renhou 「人和」 is an optional yaku. It is defined by a player declaring ron with a starting hand before the dealer gets a second turn or before any called tile. This premise is similar to the chihou, except the hand wins by discard (ron). In some instances, it may be considered as a yakuman, mangan, or not used at all.

Variations

Renhou is not a standard yaku or yakuman, because of the multitudes of variations applied to it.

By default, renhou can be defaulted as a mangan hand.
Likewise, it can be set as a yakuman.
Renhou may be considered as a yaku, to be cumulative with other yaku, with a variable han value.
  • Nashi
Renhou may not be used at all.
