In this game, there are two players A and B and there are 12 pennies in the middle of the table.  The rules are that players will alternate taking pennies and whoever takes the last penny wins.  At each turn, a player can choose to take 1 or 2 pennies.  Use backward induction to explain the winning strategy.  Be very detailed and explain each step.  Would you prefer to be the player that moves first or second, or does it not matter? Why?
