Tiago stared at the board. Three stones sat in a perfect, undeniable row. The "solved" game had bitten back. As the sun dipped below the horizon, Tiago didn't reach for his notebook. Instead, he picked up a stone, looked at the scarred table, and asked for a rematch.
Tiago, distracted by the sound and the heat, placed his final X to block what he thought was a diagonal threat. He smirked, leaning back. "A draw, old man. Math proves it."
Mateo smiled, showing a single gold tooth. With a trembling hand, he placed his last stone. He hadn't built a line; he had built a trap. By forcing Tiago to defend the diagonal, he had opened two simultaneous paths on the flanks.
