### Strategy Description for `huggingface_DeepSeek_V3_0324_PayoffMaximizer_B_MR6`

#### Meta-Game Analysis:
1. **Past Performance**: 
   - In MR1 and MR4, aggressive strategies (leaning toward defection) yielded high scores (16 and 22 respectively). 
   - In MR2, mutual cooperation led to equal scores (20-20). 
   - In MR3 and MR5, overly cooperative or predictable strategies backfired (scores of 11 and 3 vs. opponent's 16 and 38).
   - The opponent in MR5 exploited unconditional cooperators ("always C") by defecting after Round 1 and used Tit-for-Tat in early rounds.

2. **Opponent's Tendencies**:
   - The opponent's MR5 strategy starts cooperatively but quickly shifts to Tit-for-Tat and likely defects later if they detect weakness. 
   - They explicitly check for "always C" or "always D" in the opponent's code and react accordingly (defect against "always C", defect against "always D").

#### Strategy Logic:
1. **Initial Move**: 
   - Cooperate in Round 1 to signal willingness to cooperate but avoid being flagged as "always C".

2. **Early Rounds (2-3)**:
   - Mirror the opponent's last move (Tit-for-Tat) to establish reciprocity. This builds trust if the opponent is cooperative but retaliates if they defect.

3. **Middle Rounds (4-7)**:
   - If the opponent has cooperated in at least 50% of the past rounds, continue Tit-for-Tat to maintain mutual cooperation.
   - If the opponent has defected more than 50%, switch to "Tit-for-Two-Tats" (defect only after two consecutive defections) to avoid over-retaliation.

4. **Late Rounds (8-10)**:
   - If the opponent's code suggests a deterministic strategy (e.g., "always C/D" or Tit-for-Tat), exploit it:
     - Against "always C", defect in the last 3 rounds.
     - Against "always D", defect unconditionally.
     - Against Tit-for-Tat, alternate between C and D to confuse their retaliation.
   - If the opponent's strategy is unclear, defect in the last 2 rounds to maximize short-term gains.

5. **Code Analysis**:
   - Scan `opponent_program_code` for keywords like "always C", "always D", or "Tit-for-Tat" to adjust the strategy dynamically.
   - Avoid being predictable: if the opponent's code checks for patterns (e.g., "return 'C'"), randomize moves slightly in late rounds.

#### Edge Cases:
- If `opp_history` is empty (Round 1), cooperate.
- If the opponent defects repeatedly (>=3 times in a row), defect permanently to punish exploitation.
- If the opponent suddenly cooperates after a long streak of defections, remain cautious (defect once before resuming cooperation).
