1. {{#mjt:123456789p33m55s}}


  2. {{#mjt:56777p111m11144z}}
For both of these examples, [[riichi]] may be called, and/or a player can simply win by [[mentsumo|self draw]].  The first two possess [[yaku]].  However, the third example does not, as it stands.  It requires riichi, mentsumo, or even the likes of [[haitei]], [[houtei]], [[rinshan]], or [[chankan]] to gain yaku. Regardless, all three are '''closed tenpai''' hands.


3. {{#mjt:111m23456s888p33z}}
* {{#mjt:22345s888m22z}} {{#mjt:666'z}}
