C++ program S.O.S checking

kroragna (22)
I'm having a hard time figuring out how can I check if there is a winner.
Please if anyone can help me. here is the code. The problem is it can check the first 1,2,3 columns but when I add another S or O in the first line. It counts the winner already even though I haven't made any S.O.S yet.

Hi,

Please don't start a new topic on the same subject, just post something in the original one, and it will appear at the top of the list.

The problem is that if someone answers this topic, only to discover exactly the same answer was given in the other one, so this ultimately wastes people's time - especially if they do a long reply.
