The six-day War as Sequential Move Game

Strategic form:

2 x 4 Payoff player 1

D,D D,C C,D C,C

C 1 1 3 3

D 2 4 2 4

2 x 4 Payoff player 2

D,D D,C C,D C,C

C 4 4 1 1

D 2 3 2 3

EE = Extreme Equilibrium, EP = Expected Payoffs

Rational:

EE 1 P1: (1) 0 1 EP= 4 P2: (1) 0 1 0 0 EP= 3

EE 2 P1: (1) 0 1 EP= 4 P2: (2) 0 0 0 1 EP= 3
