  5. ••• ••• • ••••• •••• ••••• Assessment •••• •• • • • • An assessment is a pair (0,1-1) where • a is a strategy profile and • 1.1 is a belief system: 1.1(,1/) is a probability distribution on 1 for each information set I. 5

  6. ••• ••• • ••••• •••• ••••• Sequential Rationality •••• •• • • An assessment (0,1J) is sequentially rational if 0i is a best reply to O_i given IJ(.I/) for each player i, at each information set 1 player i moves . • That is, 0i maximizes his expected payoff given IJ(.I/) and given others stick to to their strategies in the continuation game. 6
