If you ignore the discard, your hand has a bit more versatility, but is slowed down if you go for All Pungs later. If you take the call, your hand is entirely forced to be All Pungs, and that's probably all your hand will score (except maybe if you're lucky enough to have a pung of dragons or valuable winds, or your own bonus tile). Now, you'll have to decide which way to take that hand the first time someone discards a tile to turn one of your pairs into a pung. Generally, you'll go for one of these two hands if your opening hand has at least four pairs, or a couple of concealed pungs.
Generally, Seven Pairs is considered a more 'advanced' or 'skilled' yaku to aim for (All Pungs is treated as a very simple, novice yaku), but both have their advantages or disadvantages. Here are some common hands that you can aim for.Īll Pungs and Seven Pairs are very similar hands in a lot of ways, and it's hard to say whether one is better than the other or not. With our Hong Kong Old Style rules of a 3 faan minimum requirement, and the Japanese Riichi one yaku minimum requirement, you need to have some idea of the final shape of your hand from the beginning. When you're new to the game (and even for when you're more advanced), starting your hand can be a bit intimidating.
