Antonio and Bernardo play the following game. They are given two piles of chips, one with $m$ and the other with $n$ chips. Antonio starts, and thereafter they make in turn one of the following moves: (i) take a chip from one pile; (ii) take a chip from each of the piles; (ii) remove a chip from one of the piles and put it onto the other. Who cannot make any more moves, loses. Decide, as a function of $m$ and $n$ if one of the players has a winning strategy, and in the case of the affirmative answer describe that strategy.

Let $k>1$. Fix a circle $\omega$ with center $O$ and radius $r$, and fix a point $A$ with $OA=kr$. Let $AB$, $AC$ be tangents to $\omega$. Choose a variable point $P$ on the minor arc $BC$ in $\omega$. Lines $AB$ and $CP$ intersect at $X$ and lines $AC$ and $BP$ intersect at $Y$. The circles $(BPX)$ and $(CPY)$ meet at another point $Z$. Prove that the line $PZ$ always passes through a fixed point except for one value of $k>1$, and determine this value.
