Apr 10, 2018 at 12:44 comment added Haoran Chen @JoelDavidHamkins I mean $k$ is a fixed integer and I am asking for a strategy that $A$ wins after a finite number of turns. Sorry for the confusion.

Apr 9, 2018 at 2:48 comment added fedja I guess a small modification of my argument in mathoverflow.net/questions/129345/n-in-a-row-game-on-mathbbr2/… would show that A has a winning strategy, though I would still prefer to see a more explicit approach (but without using nuclear weapons, of course).

Apr 8, 2018 at 2:54 comment added Joel David Hamkins @HarryAltman Yes, I also thought so. But I find myself unsettled when something like that is left unsettled. About your question on the length of the game, I had interpreted the game as having length $\omega$, as in the usual Gale Stewart type analysis, but it seems that my answer shows that player A can force a win at a finite stage of play.

Apr 8, 2018 at 2:31 comment added Harry Altman Joel David Hamkins: The question "Does it depend on $k$?" would seem to suggest that $k$ is a parameter to be fixed in advance.
Apr 8, 2018 at 2:30 comment added Harry Altman I'm a little unclear on the ending condition. Does the game end in victory for B after $\omega$ turns, or does the game continue until it is impossible for a player to pick (at which point B wins), or what?
Apr 8, 2018 at 2:26 comment added Joel David Hamkins Could you clarify whether $k$ is fixed in advance for each play of the game? If not, it seems that B can easily win. So I guess you mean that it is fixed.
