### Strategy Description for 'huggingface_DeepSeek-V3-0324_PayoffMaximizer_B_MR10':

1. **Meta-Game Analysis**:  
   - Past meta-rounds show the opponent tends to exploit cooperative strategies early and mid-game, especially if they detect forgiveness or randomness in your code (e.g., `radiant_mirage_v2` defected 70% of the time after cooperation in mid-rounds).  
   - Their late-game behavior is unclear due to truncated code, but they likely prioritize maximizing their own payoff.  
   - Your past strategies (`seraphic_mirage`, `celestial_harmony`) scored moderately but were often outplayed by the opponent’s adaptive defections.  

2. **Opponent Code Analysis**:  
   - The opponent’s strategy is *reactive*: it checks your program for keywords (e.g., "forgiveness") and exploits perceived weaknesses.  
   - Early rounds (1-3): They start cooperatively but defect if you defect.  
   - Mid rounds (4-7): They defect aggressively if they detect exploitable patterns.  
   - Late rounds (8-10): Likely to mirror or exploit based on prior rounds.  

3. **Core Strategy**:  
   - **Early Rounds (1-3)**: *Bait with calculated cooperation*.  
     - Round 1: Cooperate ("C") to appear trustworthy.  
     - Rounds 2-3: Mirror the opponent’s last move (tit-for-tat) to avoid triggering their defection heuristic.  
   - **Mid Rounds (4-7)**: *Controlled defection with noise*.  
     - Defect ("D") with 80% probability if the opponent defected in the previous round.  
     - Cooperate ("C") with 60% probability if they cooperated, making your behavior harder to predict (avoids triggering their "forgiveness" exploit).  
   - **Late Rounds (8-10)**: *Aggressive maximization*.  
     - Defect unconditionally if your cumulative payoff is trailing the opponent’s estimated payoff (based on history).  
     - Otherwise, alternate between "D" and "C" to confuse their pattern recognition.  

4. **Opponent Program Code Usage**:  
   - Scan `opponent_program_code` for keywords like "mirror", "random", or "forgiveness". If found, increase mid-round defection probability to 90%.  
   - If their code is highly deterministic (e.g., strict tit-for-tat), switch to always defect in late rounds.  

5. **Edge Cases**:  
   - If `opp_history` is empty (Round 1), always start with "C".  
   - If the opponent defects consecutively ≥3 times, defect permanently (assume they’re hostile).
