Japanese Classical Scoring
Japanese Classical Overview Gameplay Scoring

After a player says "Tsumo"/"Ron" (and it's confirmed they have a valid winning hand) their Han & Fu are totaled and converted into points. Then they receive a payout.

All players start with 2000 points.

Calculating Fu

After adding up fu, the score is rounded up to the nearest 10. (Note: This is only in the newest rules published in 2016, older rules only rounded up the score after applying han.)

Fu for sets Exposed Concealed
Pung of simples 2 4
Pung of terminals/honors 4 8
Kong of simples 8 16
Kong of terminals/honors 16 32
Fu for Winning Fu
Pair of Dragons 2
Pair of seat/prevalent wind 2
Edge, closed, single wait 2
Self-draw 2
Agari (winning) 20

Converting Fu and Han to points

The winning player first calculates their fu, and doubles the score for each han. The limit for score is 500, which a hand cannot exceed.

Depending on if the hand was won by Tsumo or Ron, or if the hand was won by east, players pay varying multiples of the hand score to the winning player.
Discarder East Others
East Tsumo 2x
East Ron 6x
Other Tsumo 2x 1x
Other Ron 4x
