(Chapter 4 of textbook)
8 03A 36 Imperfect information. Strategies. Strategic form associated with imperfect information game. https://youtu.be/2A7rD_yJYH8
9 03B 24 Games with chance moves. Risk neutrality again. https://youtu.be/LYjFylFatlw
The opening slide says "Video # 8" but it is actually Video # 9. Error in this video (03B), about 16min20sec: in the calculation for (AB, C),  I wrote 4* 1/2  + 12 * 3/4  = 11 whereas it should have been 1/4 * 4 + 3/4 *12 = 10.
10 03C 31 Subgames and subgame-perfect equilibrium. https://youtu.be/n9oKeRynZI4
11 03D 30 More on SPE: existence, multiplicity, when = NE https://youtu.be/wcptDXDeX2E
.

(Chapter 5 of textbook)
12 04A 34 Uncertainty in games. Expected Utility Theorem 1 https://youtu.be/UG9LJr8DMcw
13 04B 60 Expected Utility Theorem 2. Normalization.
Examples of games.
https://youtu.be/IkG1a7F_oX8
There is an error in Example 2 in video 13 (04B), about 7 minutes in. There are two equivalent ways of fixing it:  either change B > A into A > B and then all the calculations are correct,   or keep B > A but then reverse the inequality from a+c > 2b to a+c<2b. What the calculations show is that A is better than B if and only if C is better than D (alternatively, B is better than A if and only if D is better than C).
14 04C 26 Money lotteries and attitudes to risk. https://youtu.be/L_3Ky7OqEfM

(Chapters 
6 and 7 of textbook)
15 05A 44 Mixed-strategy extension/Nash equilibrium https://youtu.be/MOsPW3fL_h4
16 05B 35 More on mixed-strategy equilibria https://youtu.be/9IaqrOXsChQ
In video 16 (05B), at around the 5 min mark, there is a typo: it says that if Player 1 switches to C then his payoff increases from 2 to 4, when in fact it increases from 3 to 4.
17 05C 32 Behavioral strategies. SPE when payoffs are cardinal https://youtu.be/JVy8ZwL1bA8
18 05D 31 More on SPE in cardinal games https://youtu.be/iq1THIeYABM

(Chapters 9, 11, and 12 
of textbook)
19 06A 36 Problems with SPE. Assessments, sequential rationality
and reachable information sets
https://youtu.be/5Ipl9MnNXIk
In video 19 (06A), at around the 30 min mark, both D and E were highlighted, but E was highlighted in error (it has probability zero): only D should have been highlighted.
20 06B 39 Bayes' rule https://youtu.be/bXTfp_vIbuY
21 06C 39 Back to Weak Sequential Equilibrium. https://youtu.be/W-R1EZZdReQ
22 06D 45 How to find WSE https://youtu.be/KIJS-ESLMXQ

In video 22 (06D), at minute 20 I say and write that T is not sequentially rational (at the left node), whereas I should have said and written that B is not sequentially rational.
23 06E 46 Sequential equilibrium https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CFisHg46pkw

(Chapter 8
of textbook)
24 07A 18 The story of the 3 hats https://youtu.be/qh4aF2dGlJA
25 07B 33 Individual knowledge https://youtu.be/FRZVCpc5lFQ
There is an error in video 24 (07B) at minute 30:16. After (correctly) writing that KF = {c,d,e} I wrote that notKF (that is, the complement of KF) is {a,b,c} while obviously it is {a,b}. This mistake was corrected later at minute 31:32.
26 07C 55 Interactive knowledge https://youtu.be/fTKqrMe2BU0
There is an error in video 25 (07C) at minute12:20 I say "singleton h", meaning to say "singleton d", and then I proceed to correctly write "d".
