Takame 「高目」 and yasume 「安目」 are specific cases, where tenpai hands are waiting on multiple tiles. Takame refers to the tile wait(s) producing the greater hand value, while yasume wins with the tile(s) of a lesser value. This deals with the situation, where one group of waiting tiles may produce a hand of lower value than the other group of waiting tiles. Often, the situation determines whether a hand produces specific yaku or not.

Of course, this condition may be nullified with hands of mangan or greater. This is simply due to the ranges of han required to produce mangan or greater. For example, a haneman hand is worth 6 or 7 han. Well, the need to increase a hand's value from 6 to 7 is irrelevant, as the points awarded is the exact same.

Examples

Waiting for: or
In this case, the hand is waiting on two tiles. One tile will result in sanshoku. The other does not.
Waiting for: or
This is just a regular pinfu hand waiting on one of two tile types. If one of them is dora, then the hand prefers to win off of that dora tile. However, at times, it may just end up accepting the non-dora winning tile.
Waiting for: , , , or
Only one tile can produce the yakuman, chuuren poutou, while the other waits produces chinitsu.
