Strategic Moves

Action which changes the Game

• e.g. change in payoff matrix, available strategies

Commitment

• commitment is one of such moves
  • must be credible
    • clear to understand
    • public
    • irreversible
  • works against rational players only
    • crazy players might still go beyond and trigger your commitment
