... Theorem 30 (Nash) Every mixed extension of a finite strategic game has a Nash equilibrium. In other words, every finite strategic game has a Nash equilibrium in mixed strategies. In the case of the Matching Pennies game it is straightforward to check that ( 12 · H + 12 · T, 21 · H + 12 · T ) is suc ...

... Such a matrix faces 2 players with identical decisions, since a choice of strategy j by X and i by Y win aij for X, and a choice of j by Y and i by X wins the same amount aij for Y (because a ji -aij ). The optimal strategies for both players must be the same, and the expected payoff must be y *T ...
