Everyone expects betrayal, but no one knows the form it comes in or the time it comes. That's where the advantage lies. If we don't betray them, they'll betray us. In order to win, we need to betray them first, and in a particular manner that they won't expect. They'll take precautions. We see those precautions and look for a gap. A weak point they've missed. That's the game. We simply have to be more vigilant and more clever than they are...
