If the columns are numbered: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

Then you start with 3, reset if Stauf does not play 5

Your next moves are deterministic: 3,4,4,1,2.

In other words, the final board looks like this: ⠀ ⠀ ⠀6
⠀ ⠀ ⠀4 8⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀3 7 10 9 11⠀1 5 2 where your pieces are the odd ones, and you get a row of 4 at the bottom
