The next second game I chose the wrong strategy, plain and simple. You can't outrace a bot when it indicates readyness to engage. I thought I had the decisive tempo. Mea culpa.

Was it the wrong strategy because it was against a bot, or because it was just wrong period? Don't you have to trust yourself? In Arimaa I try to play what I think are the best moves no matter who my opponent is. I almost never adjust my strategy based on the opponent, at least not purposely.

It was wrong because I had counted wrong. In retrospect I might have known. I thought I had a decisive tempo and that turned out not to be the case. I did 'adjust' in that I changed to a 'double enclosure' strategy after the second game.
