[DETAILED DIAGRAM OF 8 DIFFERENT ARRANGEMENTS OF TOOTHPICKS. FIVE DEMONSTRATE SCENARIOS WHERE THE RED (SHOWN AS BLACK) TOOTHPICKS ARE CAPTURING EITHER ONE OR TWO WHITE TOOTHPICKS BY BEING POSITIONED ON BOTH SIDES OF THE CAPTURED PIECE OR PIECES. TEXT READS <u>'WHITE IS</u> <u>ONE CAPTURED</u>' . THREE DEMONSTRATE SCENARIOS WHERE DESPITE BEING BETWEEN RED TOOTHPICKS THE CONDITIONS NEEDED FOR CAPTURE HAVE NOT BEEN ACHIEVED.
