Black

Why "black"?
1. white moves a pawn black beats
2. white beats black has no move

Yes, it seems to me, that white.
If so, then only n = 4 is blackwinners

VALERO Re: who will win if N=2? [1] // Problem 1465. Pawn Game 12 Aug 2006 20:53

for N=8,9 the answer is black, isn't it?

Todor Tsonkov Re: who will win if N=2? // Problem 1465. Pawn Game 13 Aug 2006 11:59

I think if N==9 the answer is white, even I think we can easily see this holds for all odd N
