A useful example
A same-row pair needs an empty route between its endpoints. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Choose a deliberate next step.
Watch out for this
Three corners are invalid. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round.
