This is the 1st time I have seen this in a game I was playing.
Unfortunately, it was scored against me....and I was East.
I was defending against a riichi by West with a safe tile he had discarded previously and then South suddenly.......oooh, that hurt!
Fortunately, I had a big lead and was able to recover and go on to win the match.
Good thing it wasn't that thirteen-sided wait which may have been a double yakuman.
Sometimes I get this mixed up with that optional Shiisan Pūtā (which I have actually gotten twice) but I believe those thirteen unrelated tiles have to be in a starting hand. Still, it was nice to see.
