Default Re: Heads Up Game Theory exercise

Maybe this will clear things up .

If you have to decide before the game begins , whether or not you wish to play , then you would safely decline . You save yourself -0.33333333.

BUT , if you are coerced into playing this game; maybe some guy has a gun to your head , and post the sb , then the correct strategy is to move all in 100% of the time . If you employ this strategy then you will be ahead 0.166666 .

Your overall profit is 0.16666666-0.5 = -0.33333333

Hopefully the confusion is cleared . My assumption was that you were in the game which was outside of your control . I probably should have stipulated this but I thought it was understood .
