However, note that Chomp is not a counterexample to the claim I made in my answer: the basic "make an arbitrary move and then strategy steal" argument does not work for Chomp, since that includes the case where your arbitrary move is to take the poisoned square. I'm not saying that a modified strategy stealing argument cannot exist for chess, only that the basic one does not work. | |

| Jan 8, 2022 at 0:15 | comment | added | ckefa | @AntonPetrunin Perhaps there are games where playing an arbitrary move can hurt you, but the strategy stealing can be modified in such a way that this does not end up being an issue; however, I am unaware of any such examples. Do you have one in mind? | |
