There are a lot of discussion about Go-moku and Five in a Row game.
According E.Lasker book "Go & Gomoku" Gomoku is the game with prohibitions
of forks 3x3 and 6 or more in a Row for both sides.
The easy version of Gomoku was solved by Victor Allis from Maastricht 3-4
years ago (pure for mathimaticks).
