How you win

Win on Kong

槓上開花 · Gong Seung

Win on Kong (槓上開花 · Gong Seung) is a Hong Kong mahjong scoring bonus: You made a kong, drew the free replacement tile — and that tile completed your hand. Mahjiku's default sheet prices it at 1 faan, and every win also carries the 1 faan base, so a hand whose only named line is Win on Kong totals 2 faan. Payment follows the hand's whole faan total, not this line alone: under Mahjiku's default additive model the total is what each payer hands over — all three opponents on a self-draw (自摸), the discarder alone on a discard win (點炮), and since 2 faan is under the 3 faan minimum, Win on Kong is a top-up rather than a hand of its own. Faan values are a table's own call; this is Mahjiku's shipped default, editable in House Rules.

1faan

Mahjiku's default value, from the bonus block of Mahjiku's default rule set. House rules vary from table to table — this is one common setting, not the only "correct" one. Your table can price it differently; the engine reads whatever your rule set says.

How to spot Win on Kong at the table

When it happens: you win on the bonus tile drawn right after declaring a kong.

A worked hand

You kong the 5-dots, draw the free replacement tile, and it finishes the hand. The kong itself scores too — the two always arrive together.

Passed to Mahjiku's scoring engine (self-drawn, fully concealed, seat wind South, round wind West), that hand comes back as:

Line the engine emitted	Faan
Dragon Pung箭刻	+1
Base底	+1
Concealed Hand門前清	+2
Kong槓	+1
Win on Kong槓上開花	+1
Total	6

What 6 faan actually pays

Faan is not the score by itself — it is the number the table turns into points, and Hong Kong tables do that two different ways. Both are shipped in Mahjiku; the additive model is the default.

Payout model	One payer owes	Self-draw 自摸	Discard 點炮
Additivefaan is the payout	6	+18	+6
半辣上half spicy	32	+96	+32
辣辣上full spicy	64	+192	+64

Self-draw: all three opponents pay. Discard: only the player who threw the tile pays. Both columns are the winner's gain, straight out of the app's settlement function.
