  • Are there cells other than a1 and b1 which are theoretically losing first moves?
  • Is it true that for every cell (defined in terms of direction and distance from an acute corner) there is an n such that for any Hex board of size at least n that cell is a losing opening move?
  • Conversely, is it true that, for example, c3 is a winning first move on every Hex board of size at least 5?
