Default Re: Game Theory and Poker

Just a minor whinge. I am not sure that the description of Nash Equilibrium is wrong in "A Beautiful Mind"? Isn't Nash supposing that if anyone were to alter their strategy and go for the Blonde then that would cause the others to similarly alter their strategy? Thus they are optimal if they stick with their own brunette! It's a kind of Prisoner's Dilemma situation.

Q. If I've got Aces, should I tell you to fold or raise?
A. Neither, just get me another beer and play the damn game.
