I used to always push my expensive hands against tenpai very late in the game, under the assumption that both me and my opponent have a 50% chance of victory, so I might as well fight.
But it's false, since I'm the one who has drawn musuji, and there's no guarantee my opponent is going to draw any risky tiles for the rest of the match. I'm already at a significant disadvantage, so it's often correct to fold.
