Test yourself with Drills Enter the real score using the on-screen keypad. Choose from 5 test types — Fu, Yaku & Han (including closed/open and yakuman judgment), Non-Dealer, Dealer, or both — and confirm you truly know it with a 10-question test. 3. Watch your progress in Stats Mastery bars by category and full test history make your improvement visible at a glance. ■ Real Hand Scoring — 300 Hands (Premium, NEW) Score real winning hands directly — fu, han, and the final score, all at once.
