"Suji counting" is a strategy which is not directly related to suji. It basically states: as more types of tiles become safe, the more dangerous the non-safe tiles become.

In practice, this can be achieved by counting the number of visible suji. When more tiles are applicable for suji, the non-suji tiles become more dangerous. Eighteen different suji are in consideration - six suji for each suit, and three suits total.

Say an opponent declares riichi on [[double riichi|turn 1]], discarding an honor tile, and your turn is next. If we assume the opponent has a ryanmen wait, there is only a 1/18 chance that any one of the untested suji intervals deals in.
Say an opponent declares riichi on [[double riichi|turn 1]], discarding an honor tile, and your turn is next. There are 18 "untested" suji intervals. So if we assume the opponent has a ryanmen wait, there is only a 1/18 chance that any one of the untested suji intervals deals in. (A given ryanmen could be any one out of the 18 different suji intervals, so 1/18.)


If an opponent declares riichi after discarding 4-man, 2-pin, 6-pin, and 5-sou, then the following suji are safe: 1-4 man, 4-7 man, 2-5 pin, 3-6 pin, 6-9 pin, 2-5 sou, and 5-8 sou. This "eliminates" 8 suji intervals, leaving 10 intervals unaccounted for. Therefore, if we assume the opponent has a ryanmen wait, an untested suji has a 1/10 chance to deal in.

The reason ura suji is not that much more dangerous than normal is because it assumes a (35) kanchan had existed in the first place. The 5-pin could have been an unrelated tile, or it could have been part of a 57 kanchan, or part of a completed 556 shape, or part of a completed 135 shape, etc. Even if the kanchan did exist, an opponent could have drew a 2 before reaching tenpai.
