Just kidding...in the process of writing it up, I realized it got more complicated than I was expecting. I think I can figure it out, but I'll just do it on my own time!
Pro strat, I don’t actually close the solution forms. I usually start looking at submitted solutions the Monday before I post the solution and check again on Tuesday.
This is a complete information game and there is no randomness involved under optimal play so what do you mean by probability of player 1 winning under optimal play? Is there anything I am missing ?
I'm writing up a solution and will be a little later than the 11 pm deadline, but I hope you read it anyway! :-D

good call. I adjusted the wording a bit to "Under optimal play, what is the outcome of the game?"
