Just for Fun

The game of 15 is played as follows. Two players alternate choosing cards numbered between 1 and 9, with repetitions forbidden, so that the game ends at most after 9 moves (or four and a half rounds). The first player to have within her/his cards a set of precisely 3 cards that add up to 15 wins.

Does this game has a winning strategy? What is it? Who wins, the first to move or the second? Why am I asking this question at this particular time?
