The Pair (將 / 眼)
You need a pair to win
A winning hand = 4 sets + 1 pair.
The pair (also called 'eyes' or 'head') is two identical tiles.
Examples:
• Two 8-Dots
• Two South Winds
• Two Red Dragons
Rules for the pair:
• Must be exactly 2 tiles (not 1, not 3)
• Can be ANY tile except Bonus tiles
• Some special hands don't need a pair (rare)
Finding your pair is crucial — once you have 4 sets, you just need to complete the pair to win!
