    bxgrl – don’t think so. I had an argument with someone who was all hi-density this and utilitarian that. That was more likely Benson than you.

    Polemicist!!!!!!!

  3. bxgrl – The only real power in that game is the ability to walk away. The richer guy can walk away before the poorer one.

    Let’s say you need $10 to buy dinner for your family or they will starve. You’re playing against someone who would like, but does not need, any part of the $100. Single game, no repeats. You can not credibly threaten to walk. He can. You lose.

    Another asymmetry is that the rich guy probably plays repeat games while the poor guy doesn’t. So rich guy can lose a few but win overall. Poor guy has to win that one game.
