Abstract
In a game of two players, if both sides do not take action at the same time, then one player makes a move first, the other player makes a move afterwards. In some situations, who makes the first move and who makes the second can lead to positions of advantage or disadvantage. If the first-mover has advantage, it is called first-move advantage; if the second-mover has the advantage, then it is called second-move advantage.
