Wonderful exposition on game theory. If I remember correctly, years ago on the game show Jeopardy there were notable instances of players betting incorrectly in Final Jeopardy. I would guess that game theory is now sufficiently well-known that that doesn't happen much anymore.

Great topic to explore! My brother is a big jeopardy expert, so I'll ask him. I think you're right there are fewer mistakes now, but I think some still occur.
