Suppose player 1 potentially moves twice in a sequential game, each time choosing from one of two possible actions -- "Left" or "Right". His first move is at the beginning of the game. He gets to move a second time if he moved "Left" the first time and after observing one of two possible actions by player 2 ("Up" or "Down"). But if he moves "Right" in the first stage, he gets no further moves and the game ends after player 2 chooses one of two actions ("Up" or "Down"). Draw the game tree and list all possible strategies for players 1 and 2.
