Why do these things need to happen? This one made me sad. OK, it was late in the hand, and still ryanshanten, but still that was quite the blow.

Note that kamicha's wait still dooms my attempt to failure. Oh well...

yes unfortunely guys, i think that was so close, i never got such this hand. it must hurt you so much lol. but for example if you only tenpai 6 character before he kon 6 character, and when he make concealed kon 6 charcater, could you still rob it like 13 orphan does?

As far as I know, robbing a concealed kan is only allowed on certain hands (like 13 orphans, on a single wait), and only if that rule is in play.
