Can I shorten this if/else list?

[Xecantur]

So I wrote a small little tic tac toe game, it works without fail, now I'm just looking at ways to shorten this if/else conglomerate I've created, but so far haven't thought of a way to do so, I thought about using a switch but thought it would be about the same either way. Can any of the pro's give me some pointers ?

ps. I've been here before and know most of the rules, I'm not looking for code handouts, and this isn't for a college assignment(not even in college to be honest). :P

pps. what happened to the code box ie where you had to scroll to view code? now it only does syntax highlighting ?

if player 1 wins you are calling same method,and similarly for player two.So you can do this in 2 if-else statement.Add all conditions in one with ||(OR).Your condition check will check all conditions for palyer one win in first if and similarly for second.

oh man why didn't I think of || XD thanks IIM!, I should have remembered that guess I was thinking too hard in the wrong direction.
