Throwing out 3p only lets her call kan if she doesn't call riichi as well. The kan changes her wait from 369m + 47m to only 47m which is an illegal move under riichi.
I think Saki might be going for the +/-0 from the team score? When she goes for +/-0, she usually starts with a few big hands, and this time, she's directly targeting teams with a positive score. I don't know how +/-0 works with the team format, so maybe I'm on the wrong track.
Also to mention - she stretched her arms exactly in the same way at the 2nd hand of the match vs koromo when she called riichi more or less the same way - to have kan instead of going for a good wait.
nelly and awai got dealership pinalties by saki when their 1st dealership in 2nd hanchan. i wonder if shizuno get dealership pinalty too by saki in her 1st dealership.
Ako should read manga about herself, the fact that saki will cut 4 or 7 was really obvious :)
ReplyDeleteThx for translations!
Cutting 4 is the best, Sanshouku guaranteed.
DeleteAnd if Saki discarded the 3p, she would still be able to call kan.

DeleteHmm... Saki's true power is not Rinshan Kaihoh but "Love by the tiles", that's why she can get Tenpai so fast?
ReplyDeleteThank you for the chapter!

ReplyDeletethanks for translating! i didn't realize that saki is actually last dealer in this match .... exciting
ReplyDeleteThanks! This chapter is the first one where we can't discuss it in /a/ anymore, because it burned down with rest of 4chan.
ReplyDeleteif saki is last dealer, who is first? if you look at order seat maybe shizuno.
ReplyDeletefirst dealer is nelly. hopefully shizuno might be able to recoup some points with her two dealerships
