'''Suuankou''' {{kana|四暗刻}} is one of the standard [[yakuman]] hands.  As a direct translation, this hand consists of four concealed [[ankou|triplets]] and a pair. It is one of the three '''yakuman gosanke''' {{kana|役満御三家}}, or "the three big families of yakuman"If the hand is on a [[shanpon]] wait, the winning tile must be a [[tsumo|self-draw]] and not a [[ron|discard]] from another player.  While ron does not open the hand, it does open the resulting ''triplet'', thus invalidating the yakuman.

If the hand is on a [[shanpon]] wait (two pairs waiting to complete a triplet), the winning tile must be a [[tsumo|self-draw]] and not a [[ron|discard]] from another player.  While ron does not open the hand, it does open the resulting ''triplet'', thus invalidating the yakuman.


'''Suuankou tanki''' {{kana|四暗刻単騎}} is a variant which features the hand with a [[tanki]] [[Machi|wait]].  The hand in this state may win from another player's discard, and it'll still count for the yakuman.  In this case, all four triplets are present in the hand.  A hand of this pattern may count [[Multiple yakuman|double yakuman]], as an added [[Yaku variations#Multiple_yakuman|variation]].

This wait is sometimes considered to be worth [[multiple yakuman|double yakuman]], if won by [[tsumo|self-draw]]. Either way, yakuman is likely guaranteed with the winning tile.  If the tanki wait is combined with [[Complex_machi#Ryanmen_with_tanki|additional patterns]], then the yakuman may not be guaranteed.
The hand scores a yakuman whether the 9-man is won via tsumo or ron. It can be considered a double yakuman in some cases.

Even with [[takame and yasume|multiple waits allowing the hand to win]], only one produces the yakuman.
If the tanki wait is combined with [[Ryantan|additional patterns]], then the yakuman may not be guaranteed. The hand has multiple waits allowing the win, but only one produces the yakuman.

All four of the ''triplets'' must be concealed for this hand to be counted as yakuman. As mentioned above, if a triplet is completed via ron, then the triplet is not considered concealed. Therefore, if the hand has a [[shanpon]] wait, it can only win by tsumo. [[Kan|Closed kan]]s are acceptable, as kans are considered triplets. Of course, calling [[pon]] automatically invalidates the yakuman.

The difficulty of this yakuman stems from the need to draw at least 3 out of 4 of a single tile type, for four different tile types. Still, suuankou is the most common of all yakuman.  It can be completed with any type of tile.
