In this example, the player would have a Seat Wind pattern if their Seat Wind is East. The blue tiles represent three pungs/chows and a pair.
If both the player's Seat Wind and the Round Wind were East, the player would score for both Seat Wind and Round Wind.

Note: In addition to being worth Fan/Han, a pung of the Seat Wind is also worth Fu (in variants with Fu).
