After all scores have been tallied, the differences between each of them are paid. The winner
never has to pay, even if his hands score is smaller than the other players. If the prevailing
wind wins, everything owed to him is doubled. If he loses, he must pay double what he owes
everyone else. If a player wins by calling a discarded tile, the player who discarded that tile
must pay the winner full value for his hand, no matter how well he scores.
