Here is a situation I sometimes see players make errors with. It falls in line
with having a plan to win.
Suppose a game gets down to one province left, no duchies left, and all 8 estates left.
If you get 2 coins are are tied it would be very tempting to take the estate to get the lead.
But how does that help you win? Having the lead is not the point, it is ending with the lead.
It is very likely that the game is going to be won by that last province being bought and your
single point from the estate buy does not help.
