>---: In all last, you're 4600 points behind second place, who is now dealer. On the 8th turn there's a dealer riichi, then you reach tenpai in the same turn.
>Owata: With the riichi stick the effective point difference shrinks to 2600. Cutting 5s for riichi and winning is 5200 even without ura.
>---: The wait is a penchan though.
>Owata: I thought the chance to win was better with a riichi rather than trying to find a better wait. So I went for instant riichi.
>---: And three turns later you get the 7s tsumo, raising yourself to second place right at the end. You managed to stand your ground.
>Owata: If I'd lost there, the tenhoui promotion would have been pushed back quite a bit. The 7s was important, but I think anyone would have played this hand this way.
>---: There don't seem to be any other paths. Even if you don't take tenpai, you'll draw 6s for a 47s wait which you'll win on the same 7s.
>Owata: That's why I think the difficult choices that lead to this point were more important. Looking at the haifu like this you can really feel the importance of each discard. To everyone reading this book, please don't just look at haifu of strong players but also at your own. I'm sure you'll find some interesting things.
That's the end of this haifu.
