Let us consider the following 2-person game: the players alternately choose a number. The first player starts with a number between 1 and 10, and the players then pick up a number within the next ten of the number that his opponent has chosen earlier. The player who is able to select the number 100 first, wins the game. Can the first player pick up a number between 1 and 10 such that whatever may be the strategy of his opponent, the first player will be able to reach 100 first?
