How Yakuman is calculated
Yakuman is a limit tier: base points are fixed at 8,000 no matter the fu, and it covers yakuman hands and counted (kazoe) hands of 13 han or more. Each win type multiplies that fixed base with the standard multipliers — the results are already round hundreds, so no rounding is needed:
- Non-dealer ron4 × 8,000 = 32,000
- Dealer ron6 × 8,000 = 48,000
- Non-dealer tsumo — dealer pays2 × 8,000 = 16,000
- Non-dealer tsumo — each non-dealer pays1 × 8,000 = 8,000
- Dealer tsumo — every player pays2 × 8,000 = 16,000
