Video Summary

In the game between Sonja and Robert, they can take 1 to 5 tiles on their turn, and the player forced to take the last tile loses. With 10 tiles remaining, it’s Sonja’s turn. To ensure her victory, Sonja should leave Robert with 7 tiles. This is because, with 7 tiles, Robert will eventually be forced into losing positions where Sonja can ensure he ends up taking the last tile. Hence, by leaving him with 7 tiles, Sonja can secure a guaranteed win.
