Both shousuushi (小四喜) and daisuushi (大四喜) are standard yakuman. Both involve the kazehai (wind tiles).

Tile diagram

The difference between the two yakuman forms are subtle. Shousuushi only need a complete group of three out of the four wind types, while pairing up the fourth type. On the other hand, daisuushi requires a complete group for all four wind types.

Value

Shousuushi and daisuushi both have the value of a yakuman and therefore award 32000 points to a non-dealer winner or 48000 points to a dealer winner. However, as daisuushi is a rarer yakuman, in rulesets where a double yakuman is allowed, it is counted as such and awards 64000 points to a non-dealer winner or 96000 points to a dealer winner respectively.
