Thanks Bart, that was simple. Shame on me.
Not enough practice posting as in the old days. Brain Drain.
Interesting that the RICCHI adds 8000 points to the hand .
It's in the post edit but I'm sure you don't need to look.


(Sure wish all the spam showing up lately could be deleted)

There was a hand like this in Saki, wasn't there?

With more bells, of course, because anime, but... Riichi, Ippatsu, Tsumo, Pinfu, Junchan, Sanshoku, Iipeikou, Dora 3

I have a very dim memory of that from the anime.

Probably this hand from the manga: https://livedoor.blogimg.jp/zohnam/imgs ... 2d0428.png

Good memory, Referee:
I think I found what you are referring to, on YouTube.
If you remove the 3 Dora , replace tsumo with ron, eliminate ippatsu and pinfu,
(she drew the 9-bam for the tsumo pinfu win, I called the 8-crak for the center wait ron win), then
we have the exact same hand but mine was only 7 doubles and Saki got the kazoe.
BUMMER!!

Nothing really wonderful here but this was like hand of the MONTH.
Had a big lead, went the easy route and all the little things just fell into place.
DEALER RIICHI TSUMO
IIPEIKO TANYAO DORA 2
Mostly luck but I'll take it.
Had a really good run with the honba count (20). That was fun.

Nice to see that all that spam has been deleted.
Looks so much better.
Thanks.

Well, this was an interesting hand, only had to wait a month since the last one.
Riichi
Ippatsu
Tsumo
Iipeiko
Pinfu
Dora (4)

Illustrates how DRAWING (not calling) the right tile (9 instead of 6) at the right time (immediately after riichi) can really inflate the point value.
Add some luck with the ura dora and like magic, 24000 points.

Need to get more of these, like maybe, every WEEK. Haha!
