Playing chicken: Tommy and Billy drive their cars directly at each other and each must make a simultaneous strategic decision—to swerve out of the way of the other car, or to continue straight. Both drivers believe that if the other swerves while he continues straight, he wins respect (payoff =2) and the other driver loses reputation (payoff = 0). If neither swerves, both drivers wreck (payoff for each = -10). If both drivers swerve and avoid collision, no harm is done to either (payoff = 1 for both).
a. Draw the payoff matrix for this game
b. What is/are the Nash equilibrium (equilibria?)

The chicken game. There are two drivers, both headed for a single lane bridge from opposite directions. The first to swerve away yields the bridge to the other. If neither player swerves, the result is a costly deadlock in the middle of the bridge, or a potentially fatal head-on collision. It is presumed that the best thing for each driver is to stay straight while the other swerves (since the other is the "chicken" while a crash is avoided; the...

29. Consider the following game. You and your friend, Alice, are driving cars towards each other. Each of you can either swerve (S), to avoid colliding into the other person, or not swerve (NS). If you both choose NS, then you crash into each other and die. If you both choose S, then the game is a tie. If one person chooses S, and the other chooses NS, then the one who chooses NS wins. The following payoff matrix depicts...

Chicken is a game played by two stupid teenagers who are attempting to prove who is the coolest (dumbest), basically they drive full speed at each other (head-on) on a narrow road and see who swerves first. The first to veer off is branded the chicken, whereas the one who doesn’t swerve gains the esteem of the other teens. Of course, if neither veers, then they both die in the resulting crash. The payoffs for the Chicken game are as...
