2. Eve and Noa start with $10 in each of their piles. They take turns choosing one
of two actions, continue or stop, with Eve choosing first. Each time a player says
continue, $10 will be removed from her pile, and $20 will be added to the other
player's pile. The game automatically stops when the total amount in their piles
reaches $60.
