How to run a set of code when mouse button is clicked?

Question

I want to run my code when Button_1 is pressed. So something like :

def buttonPress(self, event):
    (Not sure what to put here)

def playGamesWith(self, aiPlayer):
 if buttonPress == True:
    ...

Would this be the right approach? Create a function that checks for the event then returns true when it is pressed? If so, how would I do that?

If your window is called root, use

root.bind("<Button-1>", handler)

where handler is a function that should be executed when button 1 is pressed.
