BALTIC-WAY 2017 Problem 10
Maker and Breaker are building a wall. Maker has a supply of green cubical building blocks, and Breaker has a supply of red ones, all of the same size. On the ground, a row of squares has been marked in chalk as place-holders. Maker and Breaker now take turns in placing a block either directly on one of these squares, or on top of another block already in place, in such a way that the height of each column never exceeds . Maker places the first block.
Maker bets that he can form a green row, i.e. all blocks at a certain height are green. Breaker bets that he can prevent Maker from achieving this. Determine all pairs of positive integers for which Maker can make sure he wins the bet.
