To expand on this if you look at your opening hand before you make the decision the default is you are playing first.
Quote from MTR »
For the first game of a match, the winner of a random method (such as a die roll or coin toss) chooses either to play first or to play second. The winner must state this choice before looking at his or her hand. If the winner states no choice, it is assumed that he or she is playing first. The player who plays first skips the draw step of his or her first turn. This is referred to as the play/draw rule.

Is this choice made before or after looking at the opening hand?
