Learn from a sample situation

A row beginning 0 0 needs 1 next. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Take a moment to compare.

One detail worth checking

Balanced rows may still duplicate each other. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board.
