Just noticed the smirk on Dr Rosenberg.
If that surgeon can’t force a cat’s game then I don’t want him operating on me
Both surgeons are bad it seems. Assuming X went first and played in the middle (the most optimal and common move), He could have won a turn early because O would have had to miss a block on O’s previous turn.
Edit: The only case where this isn’t true is if X’s most recent move was the X in the center which would mean that the center was open for every previous turn. That still doesn’t bode well for either of their abilities.
The corner, where he played is actually more optimal because it is easier to force a fork from that position, though as you said the middle is the most common
Never go middle side if they have the center. That’s amateur hour.
Simon Bramhall would love this…
