For special winning hands, the Thirteen Orphans hand is used. Only the player who wins scores points. Other players pay according to the rules. A winning hand must have at least 3 Fan. The maximum is 10 Fan; any hand over 10 Fan is scored as 10 Fan. Full Ching : If a player wins by someone else discarding a tile (called "Chong"), the person who discards the tile bears all the points. Payment and Receipt Full Liability of Chuck, the discarding player pays for the whole hand for chucking. Pao (Liability): A player who discards a key tile that is meld by another player and that melding significantly assists the latter, hence Pao adopted in prevention. a. When a Pao is confirmed, the discarding player pays for the whole hand when the melding player wins on self-drawn(any moment later). If the melding player wins on chuck, it is still the chucking player who pays for the whole hand. b. The situation of Pao includes: Fourth meld, When a player has already melded (include concealed kan, same below) for three times, any player who discards a tile and lets the player to meld for the fourth time should bear the Pao. No one will pao if the fourth meld is a concealed kan. Big Dragon, When a player has already melded two dragon triplets/quads, another player who discards the remaining dragon and lets the player meld should Pao.
