Key assumptions
No checking XY (Cannot have same cards) Money in the pot is an historic cost (sunk cost) and plays no part in decision making.
John von Neumann and Oskar Morgenstern : Theory of Games and Economic Behaviour (1944)
New conclusions
Player 1 should bluff with his worst hands The optimum bet is size of the pot
3 Cards in the Deck {Ace, Deuce, Trey} 2 Players One Card Each Highest Card Wins Players have to put an initial bet (ante) before they receive their card A round of betting occurs after the cards have been received The dealer always acts second
Assumptions
Never fold with a trey Never call with the ace Never check with the trey as the dealer
Opener always checks with the deuce
Conclusions
Dealer should call with the deuce 1/3 of the time Dealer should bluff with the ace 1/3 of the time If the dealer plays optimally the whole time, then expected profit will be 5.56%
