Mangan

Also called: 満貫

The first Riichi score cap — usually 8,000 points (12,000 dealer).

Mangan is the first of Riichi's score caps, hit at 5+ han (or 4 han with 40+ fu, or 3 han with 70+ fu). A non-dealer mangan tsumo pays 2000/4000 (the dealer pays double); a dealer mangan tsumo pays 4000 from each opponent. Above mangan are haneman (6-7 han), baiman (8-10), sanbaiman (11-12), and yakuman (13+ or qualifying patterns).
