Norwegian Pincer

A Connect-4 move that involves 3 horizontal tokens in a row with two empty valid places next to the row of tokens. Since the other player cannot win, it serves as a signpost for loserville for the other player.

French Surrender

This is a Connect-4 move, which involves the Other Player sub-consciouly surrendering to the Player by letting them get 4 horizontal tokens in a row. This move is distinct from the Norwegian Pincer due to their only being one valid spot to place the winning token. Meaning that it is entirely possible for the Other Player to block it.
