==Rules to riichi==
After any time a player has a closed ''tenpai'' hand, the player may declare riichi.  Upon doing so, the hand instantly gains the potential to win 1 han.  To declare riichi, a player announces riichi and deposits 1000 points onto the table.  Then the player discards a tile facing sideways in the discard pile.  This is done to indicate when riichi was called.  If that tile is claimed by another player, then the next discard is turned sideways as a replacement.  After a riichi declaration, the hand remains locked and unchangeable; in this state, the player is simply waiting for a winning tile to appear, either by draw or discard.
