The first paragraph mentions 'payer', the others 'player'. It should be unified. If it is about gain and max (not cost and min), I prefer 'player'. 78.139.0.254 (talk) 08:18, 9 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Inaccuracy in the Text

[edit]

The first formula is misleading. EMV does not have a max() function as shown in the formula. It's only when one seeks to find the best payoff that they introduce that function. This should be made accurate (say, by specifying with a subscript on the term "EMV" that the EMV in the formula is the best, or by removing the max function and only satisfying ourselves with specifying in the text when a maximum function is used). 77.246.53.48 (talk) 07:24, 12 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
