Observing the opponent’s moves so far – paper in round 1 and scissors in round 2 – it seems they might be cycling through the options (paper, then scissors, then possibly rock). If they do follow that pattern, their round 3 move could be rock, which paper would beat. Additionally, after tying with scissors in round 2, the opponent might try to counter my previous move. To preempt this potential pattern, I’ll choose paper for round 3.
