Very interesting post, I had never heard of this game! I like your
description of the second player's "mirroring" strategy... which
raises a question: you indicate that the first player is prohibited
from playing in the center on the *first* turn, but can he play there
*after* the first turn (in which case presumably the second player
would have a winning strategy, since he can't continue to mirror at
that point)? The implementation suggests that this center move is
*always* prohibited, is that right?
