I've changed line 48 with this

elif y not in options:
        print("Enter any of the options ")

that works great so far actually. what do you think about my counter i wanted to make a counter of 5 if the computer or player gets 5 points first it prints out one of the last print statements at line 53

On line 48, you're checking whether y is equal to the function str. Clearly, that will never be True. You don't want to check whether y is of type str, either (with isinstance) because on line 10, you know it's already a string. Incidentally, you don't need the call to str on line 10, since input already returns a string. If you want to check whether a string contains only alphabetical characters, then have a look at the documentation to see if you can find an appropriate method.

Also, variable names like x and y are pretty meaningless - use names that tell you what the variable is for. That helps everyone (you included) to read and therefore understand the code.
