The rules are fake. They’re for suckers.

There are real rules, but no one tells you what they are. Half of the game is sussing out the real rules.

Or do follow them and win?

On the surface they are on top. Only on top.

Meanwhile the adaptive rule players always play defense, perhaps they’re not so adaptive? They do adapt well to losing. Everything.
