If the noob were smart he would just mix the wine together and let the other guy go first. If the other guy didnt drink then they were both poisoned.

Game theory is game theory. Once you understand it, you may apply it to poker all you want.

Theory of Games. I love it. Didn't watch the vid though. Life is a game comprised of winners. Y'all are the sperm that one. Yes you, it's the govern(others)ment(alities) that sees other wise. Losers. In life their are none. If you want to know what a loser is, look in a used condom. Hahahaha... that was a funny one. But really though I know now life is a joke. Pts. Pts. in all T-H-I-S S-H-I-T humanity sees pts. Hahaha.. The ptless gods must be dying laughing. In goD we trust... hahaha... sit boy
