Looking at the pattern of my opponent's choices, they've played paper 3 times, scissors 3 times, and rock 2 times. They seem to favor paper against my rock (winning rounds 1 and 8). They also seem to mirror my choices occasionally (scissors in rounds 2 and 6). Given that I've played scissors and paper most recently in rounds 7 and 8, and my opponent countered with scissors and paper respectively, they might anticipate me choosing rock this round and play paper again. However, since they've already won 4 rounds and I've won only 2, they might play more defensively. I'll choose rock as they may expect me to avoid it after losing with it in the previous round, and they might play scissors thinking I'll choose paper.
