      sounds like a joke but it's true. Because of the order of the options in the name, unexperienced players might be more likely to choose an option depending on their position in that order.
      In german scissors is the first one in the order, that's why noobs use it pretty often at the start of a set, since they choose the first thing that comes to their mind. Since it's the first in line it's the first thing that comes to their mind

    Tbh, Julie actually threw. She could have made him think that she was going to keep throwing scissors, and threw rock in the last round. Because he’d most likely either throw rock (to counter the scissors) or throw scissors to tie. Because of that, rock was the safest option, leading to either a tied round or a win. Or, if she was feeling extra risky with a hard read, she could’ve thrown paper to counter his rock (which he was most likely to play to counter her scissors)
    But of all things, throwing scissors in the last round was definitely the worst play. The chances of him throwing paper after she threw so many scissors was super low, and thats the only hand she could’ve won against.
    Overall, big throw from Julie and I can’t believe I wasted my time typing all of this out.

      If you watch, she throws 4 straight Scissors then switches to rock right before the last throw while I threw 3 straight paper. Of her 4 Scissors, she went 3-1 then switched to rock and lost. In that moment, I knew she likely would go back to Scissors as they were her winners. She hadn't been throwing any paper so I agree, rock was my best option. She even said in later interviews she knew I'd go rock but couldn't get herself to throw paper which was likely her best bet given I was paper heavy and it would help push a tie.

    I might reason that in a high-pressure situation like the last throw, the opponent is more likely to throw Rock, since it is the least effort, so Paper would often be the winning move. I feel there could be some deep psychology behind the strategy, but to reliably analyze and execute in the moment is dubious, so you may as well fall back to trying to be random.

    Never throw scissors on the first one everyone either throws paper or rock. Paper being the thinking mans opening, and Rock being the dum dum's opening.
