There are 10 piles of coins (possibly with different amount of coins). Each of the two players can take arbitrary number of coins either from the leftmost or from the rightmost pile of coins. The one who cannot make a move loses.
Is there a winning strategy for some of the player in this game?

Thanks in advance.
jane.
