The combination of "Same" is described as "2 equal values after 2 run sets", but I am not sure what that means. Can you please explain a bit more and give an example? Without fully understanding, it can't be translated correctly.

It's might be phrased a bit better now. In any case, it means a hand built using 2 sequential sets of different colors, with remaining 2 tiles having the same value (of any color). For example, red , blue and a pair of s.

Thank you for your fast answer!

I don't see any difference in the phrasing yet. It probably needs some update first.

So, if I understand it correctly, 0 + 1 + 2 in red scores as 2; 2 + 3 + 4 in blue scores as 2; and the remaining pair has to be with numbers exactly +1 than the score of these two runs? And the runs have to be of different colours, right? That's not easy to explain in short words!

Also, I find the name "Same" not very helpful to recognize this kind of combination.

Probably just not synchronized with the translation center yet, in the game it's already displayed.

That's correct, except that the values of the sets and the remaining pair don't have to be related to each other. There's only a practical limitation that the only possible pairs values are , , or , otherwise the hand's total would go over 10. So Blue , Red , and is also valid.

It does sound much more natural in original Japanese indeed.

So apparently I misinterpreted the source, and the correct condition is both red and blue sequence sets resolving to the same number, regardless of the two remaining tiles. Sorry for all the confusion.
