<b>T. G. L. Zetters</b>, has proven in 1979 that either player can draw in the 8-in-a-row game.  This is a variant of the well known 5-in-a-row where players take turn placing their mark to a square on an infinite square grid, and a player wins if they have a consecutive sequence of 8 or more of his own marks in a row, column, or diagonal.  According to the book Csákány Béla, _Diszkrét Matematikai Játékok_ (Polygon, Szeged, 1998), this is a pseudonim of a group of Dutch mathematicians.  According to the manuscript András Csernenszky, The Chooser-Picker 7-in-a-row-game (submitted in 2010, arXiv:1004.2460v1), it is a pseudonym for A. Brouwer.
