Question 87

Three piles of chips- (pile I consists one chip, pile II consists of chips, and pile III consists of three chips) are to be used in a game played by Diki and Priscilla. The game requires:
a) That each player in turn take only one chip or all chips from just one pile.
b) That the player who has to take the last chip loses.
c) That Diki have her turn. From which pile should Diki draw in order to win?
Show explanation Expand Question
This is a strategic game similar to misère Nim. The piles contain 1, 2, and 3 chips respectively. By analysing optimal play, the initial position allows the first player to force a win regardless of the first move, provided subsequent moves are optimal. Therefore, Diki can begin with any pile and still maintain a winning strategy.
