"one double" mahjong 53k
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scoring_in_Mahjong
enwiki: "A common English term is double, as the point-to-
score translation is typically exponential with a base of 2. 
(This is not to be confused with the doubling applied to the 
basic point score in some variations). Chinese variants will 
use the term 番 (pinyin: fan)."
"... usually worth an extra bonus (one double/faan/han)."
